The church is substantially built of stone, chiefly random coursed ashlar of good quality; the roof coverings are of tiles, except for the south porch which is covered by stone slates and the aisles which are covered by lead. The tower is of four stages, with angle buttresses and embattled parapet, above which rises a short pyramidal roof.
Building is closed for worship
Ground plan:
Nave of four bays, north and south aisles, west tower with pyramidal roof, chancel with small organ chamber/vestry to the north, south-west porch.
13th and 14th century, drastically restored by Easton of Tichmarsh in c.1860. The tower was entirely rebuilt in 1861 and the rest of the church seems to have been largely restored or rebuilt at much the same time. The clerestoried windows of the nave appear to be, for the most part, old work and the two Perpendicular windows on the south side of the chancel - and also the south chancel doorway and north-east chancel window - are also mostly ancient work.

The general character of the building is Perpendicular. Above the south-west entrance porch is a small 19th century statue of St. Andrew. Architecturally the most significant part of the building is the chancel, which is less severely restored and might almost stand by itself if that were practicable.

Inside the character and atmosphere of the building are almost entirely Victorian. The arcades are of four bays, the two inner bays on each side being wider than the bays east and west: the south aisle is Early English, the north arcade Perpendicular. The nave roof is a good one, panelled and boarded with carved bosses in convincing imitation of a 15th century roof.

The sanctuary area is lined with encaustic tiles, their insertion being recorded in a small tablet on the south side of the chancel: "Placed around and beneath the Lord's Table to His glory and in memory of Lady Emma Hussey in 1874". Along the east wall, behind the Altar table, is the Cross and symbols of the four evangelists in flanking panels of mosaic.
