Scene Description: ZáLeZ writes: "La iglesia es de finales del siglo XII y solo conserva románico el ábside, sujetado con columnas entregas que parten de un nivel superior, y todo él construido de buenos sillares más o menos regulares. En la cornisa se muestran trece canecillos, la mayoría geométricos, excepto tres: dos mascarones humanos (antropomorfos) y uno zoomorfo. El mascarón situado en la torre procedería del lateral del ábside que quedó oculto por la construcción de la torre-espadaña de factura posterior (gótica). El templo está considerado como de los rurales pobres del románico burebano."
