General notes

The church was built in 1764 on the site of a former chantry chapel which had been built in the 16th century as the private chapel of the Becconsall family.
The church is in brick with a stone-slate roof, and has a rectangular two-bay plan with a small sanctuary, and a small vestry at the northeast corner. At the west end is a 20th-century brick porch and a round-headed chamfered doorway. Above this are two round-headed gallery windows, and on the apex of the gable is a small bellcote. On the sides of the church are two round-headed windows, and at the east end is a large Venetian window. Inside the church is a west gallery.
The church is now redundant.
