Church Of St Cuthbert

The Church of St Cuthbert is a parish church built between 1826 and 1828 by architect John Dobson, with a chancel and organ chamber added in 1900 by Hicks and Charlewood, and an early 20th-century vestry. It is constructed of squared stone with dressings and features purple slate roofs, with shingles on the spire. The church has an aisleless nave, a west tower with a vestry on the north side, and a chancel with an organ chamber also on the north.

The nave is designed in an Early English style, while the chancel includes windows with Geometrical tracery. The tower is angle-buttressed and consists of three stages, featuring pointed openings, including a doorway on the south and a two-light Geometrical tracery window on the west. The tower is topped with an embattled parapet, corner pinnacles, and a narrow octagonal spire. The nave has four bays with buttressed divisions, lancet windows, and a steep roof with coped gable parapets. The chancel has three bays, also with buttressed divisions, a sill string, and two-light windows under hoodmoulds, along with a steep roof and coped east gable parapet. The east end features angle-buttresses with gablets and a pointed five-light window under a hoodmould. The vestry, located above a basement boiler house, has a three-light mullioned window on the west and a steep roof that is hipped over the north return. The organ chamber has a buttressed north gable end and a shouldered east doorway, with a steep roof.

Inside, there is a tall narrow pointed tower arch. The nave contains a late 19th-century wooden pulpit with blind Geometrical tracery, a late 19th-century octagonal marble font, a tripartite World War I memorial on the south wall, and a memorial window from 1982 dedicated to John Edward Joicey by L.C. Evetts. The roof features five arch-braced trusses. In the chancel, there is a pointed double-chamfered chancel arch, with the organ chamber behind a similar arch. The sanctuary is panelled with blind tracery and cresting, and features a carved reredos depicting the four Evangelists in crocketed niches, along with a compartmented barrel roof adorned with foliage bosses.
