The Church is now faced with cement. The south door has an C11 arch enriched with lattice ornamentation in the tympanum and a single order of shafts with chevron and spiral ornamentation. The chancel has a fine C11 arch with chevron ornamentation and 1 order of shafts with spiral and lattice ornamentation. The east window has ornamented shafts and an arch with chevron ornamentation and the sanctuary has a cross vault with carved boss.
