Two square towers flank the gabled end of this sturdy English Gothic Revival church, built of local red brick. The west tower is two stories and the east is three stories, both topped with corbeled brick parapets and crenellations. Each tower has a pointed arched entrance, and a large pointed-arched window is centered in the gabled facade beneath a wall cross constructed of raised brick courses.
