St Margaret's church was originally part of the Morton Valence and Whaddon civil parish, so it became known as the chapel of Moreton.

[6] The church of St. Margaret is an ancient building of stone, consisting of chancel, nave without aisles, north porch, and an embattled ashlar tower to the west containing three bells.

There is a moulded and pointed arched north doorway with carved head labels to hoodmould, the door itself is plank wood from the 19th century.

[4] The porch has moulded 4-centred archway in parapet gable with diagonal corner buttresses with small chamfered square-headed side windows; these were restored in the 19th century.

[4] The diagonal offset buttresses next to the three stage tower have heavy plinth moulding broken by a pointed-arched west doorway, a 19th-century restored two-light window on the west side and small chamfered square-headed opening next to the middle stage on the north and south sides.

The buttresses at belfry level are clasping and the east pair are terminated above the nave roof with carved corbels.

There is a string course above with a single remaining carved animal gargoyle in east and west tower faces.

[4] The nave has a continuous rounded string course at sill level and timber ribbed barrel roof with brattished wall-plate.

A shouldered-arched doorway leads to a square stair-turret with stone steps for the tower, it is decorated with raking coped top projects flush with nave wall.

There are box pews in the nave and an octagonal stone pulpit with arcaded top and base both dating from the 19th century.
