Both north and south doors are 13th century, as is the chancel, although there are signs of earlier work in the base of the tower. The nave roof is two hammerbeams, alternating with a tiebeam and arch-braced principals. The square font, once plain, is very early but has at some time been re-cut into the form we see today. A tiny part of a wall painting shows on the chancel arch. In the chancel is a dropped window sill sedilia. The piscina, constructed of rescued stone, is in the south aisle. There is a wall monument, of no great age but beautifully carved, to Rice James (1822). The old handcart cum bier is most unusual and was obviously made locally. There is the base of an old churchyard cross in the graveyard east of the chancel.
