Church Of Holy Trinity

The Church of Holy Trinity is a parish church built in 1869 by F.R.N. Haswell. It is constructed from rock-faced snecked sandstone with quoins and ashlar dressings, topped with a roof of grey-green graduated slates and stone gable copings.

The church features a nave with a south porch and a south-west belfry, arranged in a cruciform plan. The chancel has three bays and includes a north vestry. Access is through boarded double doors set in a chamfered, recessed two-centred-arched surround beneath a moulded arch on an impost string. The porch gable is adorned with a roll-moulded finial.

The belfry is square and has two stages, with a small lancet window in the high first stage. The second stage includes floor, sill, and impost strings, along with paired two-centred-arched openings topped by a pyramidal roof. The windows throughout the church feature alternate-block jambs and chamfered surrounds, with the westernmost windows in both the nave and chancel being paired. The transept gables have two windows under cinquefoils.

Flanking the central west buttress are two windows beneath plate-traceried six-foil designs, which have dark pink nookshafts and a ball-flower-stopped sill string. The large three-light east window showcases bar tracery and a beakhead-stopped dripmould. Additionally, there is a low two-centred-arched priests' door located in the central bay of the chancel. The steeply-pitched roofs are finished with stone cross finials and moulded kneelers, with the chancel being lower than the nave.
