Description

Wyclif Baptist Church is a Nonconformist church built between 1901 and 1902 by G. Baines & Son. It is constructed of bright red brick with biscuit-coloured terracotta dressings and features a Welsh slate roof with flat terracotta copings. The church is aligned north-south and has a four-bay nave, a ritual north-west tower, twin transepts, and a shallow chancel, all designed in a Free Perpendicular style.

The west façade, which faces the street, includes a central gabled porch with a double door featuring elaborate hinges, set in a Tudor-arched surround with chamfered jambs. There are deep buttresses on the porch, and above it, a high window with shafts that rise to a stilted gable pediment containing blind tracery. The porch and window are flanked by buttresses.

To the left of the west façade is the tower, which consists of three low stages. It has a door with a traceried overlight in a Tudor arch and an ogee drip mould. The belfry openings are five-light and cusped, and the tower features roll-moulded coping to its battlements, topped with a parabolic slated roof and a tall finial. Gabled buttresses have crocketed finials, and the transept gables also have roll-moulded coping. The church is said to have a hammer-beam roof and was disused at the time of the survey.
