St Michael's is a medieval church with Victorian extension of the tower, chancel and South aisle.
With the exception of the nave roof and tower spire all other roofs are covered in copper sheet, laid using the traditional method of standing seams and cross welts joining together separate sheets.
The copper has taken on a full green patina and shows few defects. The sheets are generally held very tight to the boards with little movement in the centre of the sheet. There is some noticeable staining of the copper due to run-of from steel fixings and pipes, in particular a expansion pipe to the heating systems discharges from height above the copper.
