There was a mediaeval church in Cundall, which was described in 1823 as "mean and diminuitive", with a recently-built brick tower.
The building was demolished,[1] and a replacement was designed by Mallinson and Healey, and completed in 1852.
[2] The church is built of limestone with a Westmorland slate roof, in the Decorated style.
It consists of a three-bay nave with a south porch, a lower two-bay chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower.
Inside the tower is an Anglo-Saxon cross shaft decorated with animals, dating from around 800.
