Kirdford church was constructed to the north of the ford over the river on an area of raised land above flood level. It is a Grade 1 listed building and falls in the Kirdford Conservation Area, which is the oldest part of the village of Kirdford. According to 16th century wills the church was originally dedicated to Our Lady. The church is surrounded by a large churchyard which is still in use for burials. The walls are constructed of sandstone, probably from quarries at nearby Fittleworth, and the roof is mainly of Horsham stone slabs.

This includes the churchyard extension that is a hundred yards East of the Church.
