Church, still in ecclesiastical use, built in 1829-30 by William Robertson, Elgin, with later additions. It is a large rectangular-plan church with a four-bay south elevation, and is harled with ashlar margins and dressings. A single-storey wing projects at the rear. Four substantial shallow Tudor-arched windows light the south elevation, with moulded wooden transom and mullion and pointed-headed detailing to the upper lights, with multi-pane glazing used. There are two similar windows in the centre of the rear elevation, flanked by similar blocked window recesses, with one having a small later vestry window in its base. The blocked outer windows were probably so designed for use should a rear aisle be added at a later date. Each gable is lit with a small Tudor-arched two-light gallery window, also with multi-pane glazing, and have projecting gabled porched, each with a window. The west gable has finialled bellcote with Gothic detailing at the gable apex, and there is a later 19th century cast-iron weathervane at the east. Inside there is a well-lit galleried interior. The five-sided gallery has a panelled front that is supported by cluster columns, and there is a demi-octagonal pulpit without a sounding board. Above each main entrance door are shaped fanlights with Gothic intersecting glazing. Some later partitioning of the interior below the gallery forms a vestry and meeting room. Around the church is a large rubble-walled graveyard, in which stands a war memorial (NJ76SE0059). The main entrance is flanked by plain square tooled ashlar gatepiers with shallow pyramidal caps, with the low, coped flanking quadrants with decorative cast-iron railings of circa 1900. There is a matching pair carriage gates. Current OS maps show the graveyard has been recently been extended to the north-east.
