The three-bay nave has a south aisle and includes Norman herringbone stonework.[1] The tower can be dated to 1434 from a will bequeathing money for its construction.[2] It was extended in the 14th century.[3] The chancel has a south transept chapel and a north chapel which has been turned into a vestry.[1]

The tower contains six bells, two of which date from the late 17th century. Parts of the clock mechanism are from the 16th.[3]

The parish is part of the benefice of Aisholt, Enmore, Goathurst, Nether Stowey, Over Stowey and Spaxton with Charlynch within the Quantock deanery.[4]
