Church Of St Alban

The Church of St Alban is a parish church located in Earsdon, built between 1836 and 1837 by architects John and Benjamin Green, with the chancel added in 1889. It is constructed from coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings, featuring a plinth and quoins, and has a Welsh slate roof with stone gable copings. The church is designed in an Early English style and includes a west tower, a nave, a chancel with a north vestry, and a south porch.

The west tower has a Gothic-panelled double door on the south side, which is set under stepped lancet belfry openings. The tower is flanked by set-back buttresses topped with spirelets. The nave has six bays and the chancel has two bays, both featuring lancet windows. The sanctuary has a two-light window, while the east end has a four-light window. The porch door is boarded and set within a two-centred arch.

Inside, the church features plaster walls and a roof with gothic-traceried struts supporting a bracketed queen-post structure, with the upper level ceiled. Banded quatrefoil columns support a west gallery, and there is a two-centred arch leading to the north organ chamber. The glass in the east nave lancets dates from the 16th century and is possibly by Galyon Hone for Hampton Court. It was presented in 1874 by Lord Hastings and restored by L. C. Evetts in 1958, featuring the armorials of Henry VII and Henry VIII.
