Description
Holy Trinity Church is a Grade II listed building constructed in 1788, with a tower added in 1843. It is built from watershot hammer-dressed stone and features a slate roof. The church has a three-sided gallery plan, a small chancel, and a central west tower. The five-bay nave includes a projecting plinth, quoins, a springing band, an eaves cornice, and two tiers of round-headed windows with keystones. The east window is of Venetian type. The tower is flanked by porches that have swept coped parapets and ball finials. It consists of three stages, with the second stage featuring a round-arched window with interlaced tracery. The top stage is designed in an Italianate style, complete with arcades, clock faces, and a shallow pyramid roof. Inside, stone columns support the gallery, which has a panelled parapet, and there is stained glass throughout.
