It was decided to build a new church on the same site, but some 75m to the east-north-east of its predecessor. The new church was constructed in 1872-1876 to the designs of R.J. Withers. It consists of nave and chancel under a single roof, north-west porch-tower with slate pyramidal roof behind battlements, a lean-to vestry on the south-east, and lancet windows. The interior is broad and bald with open rafter roofs and a truss to mark the chancel. Today I found the church fenced off.
