It is almost all basically 13th century but with Perpendicular alterations which have given it low pitched roofs throughout with battlement or straight parapets. In plan it is cruciform with an aisled nave and west tower.
The chancel is notably long with large north and south transepts, the south transept is a Victorian rebuild, to the original design.
The chancel contains a fine set of twenty-four stalls, known to be given by Cardinal Langley in 1416-17. In the NW corner are many interesting architectural fragments and two fine fourteenth-century effigies: one of a lady in stone and one of a knight in oak.
A large churchyard extends north-west of the church.
