This charming and well tended Episcopal church was designed by RTN Speir and built with the finest materials (colour photograph on p.38). It has a rectangular nave with small external buttresses and an apsidal chancel, and there is a little spire over a ventilator at the east end of the nave. The walls are built of rubble with good sandstone dressings. The interior is light and airy, with an open timber kingpost roof-frame and beautifully crafted wooden pews and altar. The altar frontal is painted to show the Worship of Heaven.
