Dedicated to St Nicholas this church probably fell into ruin in the mid-17th century. The church is a plain rectangular building, aligned east-west and built of random rubble masonry. Only the nave survives (int. dims. L 10.25m, Wth 5.10m, wall T 0.95m). There are opposed pointed segmental arched doorways in the W end of the nave. The interior is lit by narrow slit opes on the south wall and a tall round arched window at loft level in the W gable which contains a double bellcote. The chancel arch is all that survives of the chancel. It is of pointed segmental type. Austin Cooper's tomb is located to the northeast on the site of the chancel.
