Description
Holy Trinity Church is a church built between 1870 and 1871 by J. Drew. It is constructed of rock-faced stone and features a slate roof. The church includes a nave with a clerestory and aisles, a crossing tower, and a chancel with side chapels and a vestry. The four-bay nave has a projecting plinth and weathered buttresses, with each bay containing a three-light window. The porch is integrated into the west end of the aisle. The bold tower features an octagonal corner stair turret, clock faces, and two two-light openings on each side of the belfry, topped with a pyramidal roof instead of the intended spire. The south transept has a gabled design with a rose window, while the east window is a five-light design with Decorated tracery. The various roofs around the tower create a pleasing picturesque quality. Inside, circular columns with moulded capitals and bases support the double-chamfered nave arcade, and the roof trusses are arch-braced and scissor-braced. The interior also includes timber fittings, wrought-iron screens, wall paintings, a font and pulpit, a mosaic reredos, and stained glass. A church has been present on this site since 1515.
