Cruciform simply means cross-shaped in plan, with a nave running along the main axis and transepts extending to either side. What makes this one quietly striking is the particular care taken with its surfaces and fittings. The entrance gable at the southwest end carries a bellcote above ornately plastered stonework, while inside, the nave and transepts retain their galleries and a panelled wooden ceiling overhead.

The building is laid out on a northeast-to-southwest axis. The nave is lit by pairs of round-headed windows, each framed by plaster hood-moulding, a decorative drip-channel that traces the curve of the arch and keeps water clear of the opening. At the northeast end, a shallow chancel steps back from the main body of the church, its side walls pierced by pointed windows that strike a slightly different register from the rounded forms of the nave. The combination of round-headed and pointed openings within a single building, along with the elaborate plasterwork on the gable and the surviving internal galleries, gives the church a character that sits somewhere between vernacular practicality and a genuine attention to architectural finish. A school building stands immediately to the west, suggesting the site once functioned as a modest local centre of both religious and civic life.
