Grade I listed

The church dates from the 12th century onwards, the tower is the oldest part dating from the 14th century. There is a late Norman south doorway, and part of the north arcade dates from that time.
The church consists of a western tower of three stages, nave and north aisle, south porch, chancel, and Somers mortuary chapel to the north.
The church is built in sandstone and ashlar with tiled roofs.

The original church (nave and chancel) was mostly rebuilt in 1852 by Sir George Gilbert Scott, with some of the original stones being reused. The tower was untouched.
The north aisle has a three bay arcade with octagonal piers. At the east end is a Norman capital. The aisle is fairly plain with narrow slit windows and continues east to become the organ chamber, and there is an entrance into the Somers mortuary Chapel to the north. The south door of the nave dates from the 12th century.

The font and pulpit date from 1852. During rebuilding an ancient font (12th century or earlier) was found beneath the nave floor. This was mounted on a 14th century base. Some say this was not a font but a "sump" which was located underneath a font to allow the water to drain away.

The church has many fine monuments to the Somers and Cocks families, who were residents at Eastnor Castle.

The organ is by Nicholson of Worcester, from 1867, presented by the third Earl Somers.
