Originally it must have been of the usual aisleless type of manorial chapel—an oblong structure with nave and chancel in one line; and so it remained till 1852, when transepts were added, the church lengthened westward and a bell turret formed at the intersection of the roofs.
There is a good Renaissance oak chest, apparently brought from elsewhere.
There are memorial tablets to members of the Hill and Popham families.
