Beautiful in its simplicity, St Bartholomew's was designed by William Dyer in 1845 in Early English Style, completed by William Butterfield in 1850.

St Bartholomew stands in a tree filled churchyard looking south over the A420 and fields to the Cotswold escarpment.

It has a nave and chancel with organ chamber to the north, a south porch and a massive western bell tower in coursed rubble stone with Bath stone dressings under Welsh slate roofs, except for the tower which has pennant stone tiles. The interior is light and airy without ornate additions, it has an attractive cream painted interior and is in a rural setting. The church is generally well cared for and in good condition.

The main entrance is through an attractive stone lychgate and the original churchyard is to the front and sides, with a newer section to the back, where there is also a 1960s style church hall.
