Constructed between 1830 and 1840, the church is an example of the Gothic Revival style. It is a one-by-four-bay weatherboarded structure with steeply pitched gable roof of tin, multipaneled doors, wainscoting and chair rail, walls formed of horizontal grooved paneling, and a double-leaf entrance tower surmounted by a Gothic arch displaying quatrefoil design and sheltered by a small pent roof. The tower has a belcast pyramid roof, decorated dormered ventilators, heavy turned wooden finial caps, a single-stage entrance tower that projects from the gable front, as well as lancet windows with Gothic hood molds or louvered shutters.
