Church of St Thomas of Canterbury

The Church of St Thomas of Canterbury is a Roman Catholic parish church built in 1854 by Joseph Hansom. It is constructed from coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof with flat stone gable copings. The church is designed in the Decorated style and has a six-bay nave with a north aisle, a south aisle, and the first stage of an unfinished south-west tower. The chancel consists of two bays and includes a north vestry.

The south aisle contains a boarded double door in the second bay, set within a roll-moulded two-centred arch. The tower's first stage is supported by massive buttresses and a chamfered plinth. The aisle windows are two-light, arranged in bays defined by buttresses, while the chancel windows are also two-light, with a five-light east window and a four-light west window flanked by three-light windows in the aisle and tower, all featuring pent roofs and varied patterns of Decorated tracery. The west gable peak displays a small trefoil, and the east gable features a cinquefoil, both under steeply-pitched roofs adorned with elaborate stone cross finials.

Inside, the church has painted plaster walls with ashlar arcades. The nave roof is supported by scissor trusses, while the chancel roof is panelled and keeled. The arcades consist of six arches on the north side and four on the south, featuring chamfered two-centred arches on octagonal columns with cushion-moulded capitals. A very high chancel arch mirrors this style, and there is a cusped two-centred door leading to the vestry. The tower arches on the east and north sides are plain and two-centred. The south aisle east window contains late 19th-century glass, while the east window features earlier glass.
