There is a crisp 19th century feel to the church, because it was subject to an 1870s restoration at the hands of Diocesan architect Richard Phipson. The most important artistic artefacts are in the east window of the south aisle. This is a collection of ovals of 17th century glass believed to come from Innsbruck, depicting Saints and biblical scenes.

The statue of a weeping cherub is an unusual addition to the memorial.
