The design is described as simple but boldly modelled, with a wagon roof of scissor-braced common rafters. Listed Grade II on 15 March 1983 (NHLE 1384094). The church was built to serve Cautley, a sparsely populated dale running north from Sedbergh towards Kirkby Stephen, and marked 175 years in 2022.
