NRHP Nomination Form"Well-detailed quarry-faced/ashlar stone church with cruciform plan and stepped corner tower near a narrow narthex flanked by buttresses. The steeply pitched roof has flat tile roof material and parapeted stone gables, each topped by a cross. The Gothic arched entry is cast stone with a stained glass rose window above. The lancet windows in the nave, tower, and gable ends are all finely crafted and stained glass. In the late 1950, a sympathetic education wing was built featuring stone walls, gable roof with gable parapet, a crenellated loggia with buttressed walls and Gothic arches. Later this was enlarged, again sympathically, with a flat-roofed structure terminated by a short corner tower. "
