The fine aisleless church, in the shape of a cross, has a 600-year-old tower beginning square and ending with eight sides, a turret rising from the ground, with a winding stairway to the belfry and a summit once used for beacon fires.
The fine arches with clustered pillars on which the tower rests are the glory of the church indoors, recalling the days when there were four guilds here, each guild keeping a light burning on these piers.
Three of the four brackets for the lights are still here, one carved with a face and one a grotesque little fellow with his legs doubled behind him.

The church belongs to England's three great building centuries, and still has the oak screen set in its chancel arch 600 years ago.
The choir-stalls are 'modern' with fine carvings of dogs, fishes, birds, bats, dragons, and a wolf.
There are two Jacobean chairs, and a richly inlaid one of cypress wood, the seat opening to form a chest; it is thought to be the throne of a Venetian Doge of the 14th century.
A little glass in a transept window is older still.
The painted font is 19th-century, most unusual in its blaze of colour, a new dress in mediaeval style.

Under an arch on the chancel wall is one of the Folkes family, in a red cloak, reading a book.
He died in 1642.
There is a memorial to James Hand, who was Rector for 49 years until 1830.

There are some pictures and a description of the church at the Cambridgeshire Churches website.
