The chancel and porch are roofed with Welsh slate and the rest of the roof is covered in purple tiles.[1] The south doorway is Norman, decorated with chevrons but rather obscured by a porch of later date.[3][8] The porch contains stone benches and on its walls are knife-sharpening slots.[1] The tower is Perpendicular in style,[3] and dates from around 1500.[5] The plan of the church consists of a tower at the west end in line with a nave of four bays and a chancel of three bays. There is a north aisle with a chapel at the west end extending as far as the chancel.[6] InteriorAll the pews are box pews[1] and are the oldest in Wirral; at one time their doors were fitted with locks and keys.[3] In the north aisle is a canopied churchwardens' pew dated 1709 and a three-decker pulpit. The altar rails date from the late 17th or early 18th century and the lectern from the late 18th century.[3] It has been said that much of this wooden furniture was moved from a church in Chester in 1812.[6] Some of the windows contain 14th-century stained glass.[1][7] The brass chandelier dates from the late 18th century.[8] The parish registers date from 1698.[3] The tower has a ring of six bells. William Clibury of Wellington, Shropshire, cast the tenor bell in 1616 and the fifth bell in 1621. John Taylor & Co of Loughborough cast the other four bells including the treble in 1938.[9] External featuresIn the churchyard the gates, gatepiers and churchyard wall along north side of Shotwick Lane are Grade II listed structures.[10] Also listed Grade II are the red sandstone sundial consisting of a tall bulbous baluster on square base dated 1720,[11] and the tombchests of James Phillips,[12] John Nevett Bennett,[13] Rev M.
