Church Of St Wilfrid And St Ann

The Church of St Wilfrid and St Ann is a church built in 1909 by the architectural firm Austin and Paley. It is constructed of glazed red brick with sandstone dressings and has slate roofs, designed in the Arts and Crafts Perpendicular style. The church features a four-bay nave oriented on a north-south axis, with a two-bay chancel at the north end. There are east and west aisles that include integral porches at the south ends, and a bell tower rises from the south-west corner of the nave.

The gabled south front is adorned with stone bands and has a tall canted bay at the gable of the nave, which includes transomed and traceried windows with three and two lights, as well as a checkered stone parapet. To the left of the gable is the bell tower, which presents its narrow side and features a pilaster. The top stage of the bell tower has transomed blind tracery at the front and a bell opening on the side, surrounded by ogival moulding. Each side of the bell tower has a moulded stone doorway leading into the aisles; the left doorway has a niche above containing a statue, while the right doorway has an oculus above it. The aisles are fitted with square-headed two-light windows, and the nave has large segmental-pointed windows with Perpendicular tracery. The chancel features a five-light east window.

Inside, as reported in June 1988, the church has pink sandstone hollow-chamfered arcades supported by octagonal piers without capitals. The interior includes an open-truss roof, a wooden reredos, a low stone wall in the chancel with a built-in wooden pulpit, a stone font, and neo-Gothic pews.
