1844 | The original part of the church, that later became part of the south aisle, is Norman in style. In 1904 the nave and chancel in Early English style were added, and in 1958 the east wall was rebuilt. The church is built in sandstone with Welsh slate roofs, and consists of a nave and chancel with a clerestory, a west narthex, a south aisle and chapel, a southwest porch, and a south vestry. There is a bellcote on the west gable of the south aisle. The narthex extends the full width of the nave, and is linked to it by flying buttresses. The gabled entrance is arched, and flanked by buttresses rising to polygonal turrets with foliage finials, outside which are trefoil-headed lancet windows, and above them is an open parapet. Above the narthex is a large three-light window with decorated stepped lancets, and there are lancet windows along the clerestory.[3][4] |
