Both the church and the church hall are of solid brick construction with stone detailing and with pitched slate roofs. The church building is quite ornate with a square tower, cupola and crenelated parapet. The present buildings are in a poor state of repair and it is considered that redevelopment may be the best option for the future use of the site.

The buildings have frontage to both Sharrow Lane and South View Road.
