[3][6][A] By the middle of the 20th century the population of St Mark's parish was declining,[3] and the church was declared redundant on 1 December 1982.

The plan consists of a four-bay nave, north and south transepts, a chancel terminating in a three-sided apse, a west porch, and a tower at the northeast angle.

[1] The tower is tall, is in four unequal stages, and has a narrow octagonal stair turret at the southeast corner.

On each side of the top stage are two two-light louvred bell openings rising into gables which break through the parapet.

[8] The former school building has been converted into a design studio and occupied by Heckford Advertising Agency since 1990.
