 The small church of Gousseauville is very sad, since 2005, struts consolidated the eastern wall of the chevet and the bay that lit it.
The East and West walls were built of flint in the 13th century, the rest are found in stone, bricks and flint, reworked in the 17th century.
It is of elongated plan, with two nested volumes ending in a flat chevet.
It has a bell-tower with two campanary bays above the anterior facade, it is a simple gable pierced to day, to lodge two tinterelles, at present the church has only one.
It is accessed through a full-arch doorway pierced in the north wall, the bedside is pierced by a large semi-circular bay.

 La petite église de Gousseauville est fort triste, depuis 2005, des étais consolidaient le mur oriental du chevet et la baie qui l'éclairait.
Les Murs-pignons est et ouest ont été construits en silex au XIIIe siècle, pour le reste on trouve de la pierre, des briques et du silex, remanié au XVII ème siècle.
Elle est de plan allongé, avec deux volumes emboîtés se terminant par un chevet plat.
Elle possède un clocher-mur à deux baies campanaires au-dessus de la façade antérieure, c'est un simple pignon percé à jour, pour y loger deux tinterelles, actuellement l'église n'en possède plus qu'une.
On y accède par une porte en plein-cintre percée dans le mur Nord, le chevet est percé d'une grande baie en plein cintre.
