The church in Beanhill South was built in 1821, replacing an earlier church on the same site, and features three pointed windows in the south wall of the nave, a side chapel and vestry to the north, and a west-facing porch. It is a modest example of early 19th-century ecclesiastical architecture, likely dedicated to a local saint, and remains within its original graveyard setting.
