It is a grade II* listed building with very well maintained churchyards. The church is normally open during daylight hours and provides an oasis of peace and quiet for visitors.
There has been a church in Rotherfield Peppard since 1233 AD. The church was enlarged in the 1870s and a new bell tower and porch added in 1908.
There are interior features which date back to Norman times such as the font, and parts of the east wall. The font is Corallian freestone quarried at Wheatley, Oxfordshire.
There are several interesting stained glass windows including the west window commemorating the northern saints, Bede and Aidan installed as a memorial to James Craig, and the Knollys memorial window installed in 1883 depicting the appearance of our Lord to Mary. The splendid pulpit and altar marquetry was a gift from a former parishioner, Mirabel Grey, and date from 1892.
The churchyards are maintained in very good order and within the churchyard is the War Memorial which commemorates eleven lives lost in World War I and eighteen in World War II.
