Designed by John Mendham (1866-1951) this church was built in 1930 in a simplified C13th Gothic style in brick with bath dressings. It comprises a nave, chancel, south aisle and south west tower with a pyramidal roof and tile hanging added in c1970 which complements its original design. The south aisle has transverse roofs giving a saw-tooth profile. The etched glass east window is by Marion Cantrell.

Two churches by Mendham have been listed elsewhere: St Anthony of Padua in Rye and St Anselm’s, Tooting, both Roman Catholic. He also designed the eminently listable Church of St Ethelburga, St Leonards, 2 miles east.
