Although extensively repaired and altered in 1784, 1872 and 1888 and structurally strengthened in 2006, St. Marys Beaumont retains many early features giving historical depth to appreciation of the building. The fine C15th kingpost roof is perhaps the most distinctive architectural feature. There is an oak framed porch in Arts & Crafts style which is understood to date from the 1888 restoration. The porch has recently been completely re-built. Walls are of Red sandstone and grey/buff carboniferous limestone and incorporate stones reclaimed from the nearby Roman Wall. C13th capitals and voussoirs of the relocated Norman doorway are of sandstone ranging in colour from buff to red. The site is of particular archaeological interest in that it is built on the site of a turret of the Roman Wall.
