Ground plan:
Chancel, nave, small north aisle, south porch, west tower.
The south doorway is c.1200: Ringed shafts with foliated capitals and square abaci. The walls are no doubt of this date, but there is no other sign except for possible remains of a lancet on the south. The present windows are two-light early 14th century, much restored. The large chancel was rebuilt c.1280: the side windows are of two-lights, the east window is of three: a priest's doorway on the south. The details here are much less renewed than in the nave. In the outside south wall is a recess with an inscription to Sir Francis Sykes, 1804, and Catherine 1817 (much later than the dates of death). The brick tower was built by subscription in 1734. There was formerly an 18th century south porch. There were changes made in 1825, 1846 and 1870, of which little is known. The subsequent restoration was in 1875-6 (E2061), possibltyunder the direction of W. H. Woodman of Reading. The.aisle was not enlarged; the tower was given a gothic arch, and a new south porch built.
The walls are of split flints: roofs tiled. Tower of brick with a lead roof. The tower is of three stages with a doorway on the south, surmounted by battlements, and pinnacles with vases. An insignificant and short leanto aisle on the north, of flint with some brick.
