Description
The Church of St George is a parish church originally built in 1825, but it was almost entirely rebuilt in 1886 by J.S. Hicks. The church is constructed of random rubble with ashlar dressings and features a red tile roof. Its layout includes a nave, chancel, south porch, south chapel, north vestry, organ chamber, and a west bell turret. The architectural style is Decorated.
The west end of the church has a two-light arched window set within a broad buttress that supports an octagonal bell turret. This turret features cusped ogival heads in its openings and is topped with a stone spirelet. The nave, which has five bays, and the one-bay chancel have straight-headed windows with similar tracery. The east window is a three-light window with panel tracery. The gables are adorned with ridged and roll-moulded coping.
Inside, the church boasts a fine timber nave roof supported by king and queen posts, with a traceried frieze along the walls. The chancel roof is a panelled timber barrel vault, while the porch and chapel roofs feature closely set segmental wood arches.
