The building is hidden in a thick grove of trees, yet there are signs to direct visitors. The 16th century Tudor brick tower can be seen through the trees from the Debach Road. "St Michael," as it is called by the locals, was an estate church, which was located on the grounds of Boulge Hall, a large three-story resident built in the late 18th century but demolished in 1955. The oldest most significant part of the church is the font from Tournai marble, dating about 1150. Many changes were made in the interior after the Reformation and particularly in the Victorian era. The church has beautiful stained-glass windows mostly made in the 19th century by the prestigious firm of Clayton and Bell. The subject of the windows are saints including the archangel St Michael. Queen Victoria with angels is the subject of a window. One of the memorial windows honors the soldiers of the Suffolk Regiment killed in 1900 at Colesberg during the Second Boer War. There is a second memorial window in remembrance of those killed in December of 1939 when the HMS Duchess sank. There are a number of memorial plaques inside the church, mainly to honor various members of the family of poet Edward FitzGerald. One of the marble plaque states, "restoration and enlargement of the church in 1857 in memory of Mary Frances Fitzgerald". The churchyard cemetery is the lasting resting place for the area's citizens. The FitzGerald mausoleum is among the graves in the churchyard and was listed in 1966 as Grade II on the Buildings at Risk Register as well as FitzGerald's pink granite grave slab and the church building. Church records have 77 persons buried in the cemetery.
