The first building on the site was a chapel of ease to St Mary's Church, Thirsk,[1] in existence by 1621.
On the junction of the nave and the chancel is a spirelet with a wooden bellcote and a pyramidal slate roof.
The porch has a stone front, and buttresses rising to an apex with a crucifix, and it contains a doorway with a four-centred arch.
[2][4] The east window of the church has stained glass depicting the crucifixion of Jesus and a war memorial.
Hodgson Fowler's decorative scheme survives largely intact, including the painted barrel-vaulted ceiling, wooden panelling on the lower part of the walls, reredos, and pews.
