The church is very interesting to visit, with lots to see. The nave is spacious and wide, since there are no side aisles. The roof spans the whole width. The nave is very light, due to most of the pointed lancet windows having plain glass. The central lancet of the east window depicts Christ in glory, after his ascension to heaven. There are some interesting monuments in the churchyard, including the war memorial with a statue of a soldier of the First World War. The names of those who died were unveiled and dedicated in 1920 and later names from World War II were added.
