United Reformed Church

The United Reformed Church, formerly a Congregational Church, was built in 1895 by Jonathan Simpson, with the patronage of WH Lever, later Lord Leverhulme. It's constructed of snecked squared red sandstone with graded slate roofs and ridge cresting. The architectural style is Perpendicular. The design incorporates elements of Anglican church architecture, featuring a tower and spire to the north, a nave ending in an apsidal east end, aisles, and transepts. A high aisle runs along the south side of the church, east of the east transept.

A doorway is located in the north wall of the nave, featuring chamfered responds, a moulded arch, and blind traceried panelling in the spandrels, which include tree-like motifs. Above it is a five-light window with fleurons to the hoodmould and clasping buttresses. The north-west tower is situated west of the aisle. The west doorway has clustered shafts and a hoodmould with fleurons, also incorporating tree motifs. An ogee lancet window is present in the first stage of the tower, followed by a moulded lancet above. The bell chamber has leaded, foiled lights divided by pilasters, continuing to divide the bell chamber lights, which have Perpendicular tracery. Blind Perpendicular arcading is above. Projecting corbels are at the tower angles, and the spire has lucarnes. Lean-to east and west aisles each have two or four bays with three-light Perpendicular windows. The clerestory has square-headed windows with Perpendicular tracery. The transepts feature paired windows, divided by a central pilaster springing from a corbel. A two-bay lean-to aisle extends south from the western transept, while a high aisle is on the north side, featuring single, foiled ogee lancet windows. The apsidal south end has wide windows on the west and south, linked by a continuous arcaded hoodmould that stretches across the blind east wall, interrupting the south-east aisle. A single-storey, flat-roofed range connects the church to the adjacent manse. The interior was not inspected at the time of listing.
