It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Garstang, the archdeaconry of Lancaster and the diocese of Blackburn.

[3] It was designed by the Lancaster firm of Paley and Austin at a cost of £7,000 (equivalent to £980,000 in 2023),[4] and provided seating for 410 people.

[5] Commenting on the church, the architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner wrote "The fertility of Paley & Austin remains astonishing".

[3] In 1919–20 Henry Paley, of the same architectural practice, designed a 26 feet (8 m)-high war memorial for the churchyard.

[3] In the top stage of the tower are two-light bell openings with pointed heads containing tracery.
