[1][3] It was long a chapel of ease to St Andrew's Church, Middleton, but in 1986 it was given its own parish.
[1] The church is built of limestone on a plinth, with a slate roof.
It consists of a nave and a chancel with a polygonal apse in one unit, a south porch and a north vestry.
On the west gable is a gabled bellcote containing two round-arched openings with moulded surrounds, a centre shaft with a scalloped capital, and a coved hood mould.
The windows have round-arched heads, quoins, and coved hood moulds.
