Church Of The Holy Trinity

The Church of the Holy Trinity is a parish church built in 1847 by E H Shellard, with a tower and spire added later. It features coursed and squared rubble with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof adorned with ridge cresting. The church is designed in an Early English style and includes a two-stage west tower with a tall lower stage and clasping buttresses. The west door is detailed with shafts and deep moulding, and above it is a triple lancet window followed by a quatrefoil. The upper stage of the tower has paired bell chamber lights, a corbel table, and a brooch spire with lucarnes.

The long nave consists of six bays and has lean-to aisles separated by buttresses. It features a continuous sill band and heavy unmoulded blocks between the windows, which may be unfinished corbel heads. The cornice and overhanging eaves enhance the structure's profile. A gabled north porch with shafts leads to the doorway, and the clerestory windows are trefoiled and divided by pilasters. The lower chancel has stepped lancets in the east window, which is topped by a continuous hoodmould, and there is a gabled vestry to the north of the chancel.

Inside, the nave arcade comprises six bays with clustered banded shafts and roll moulded capitals. Stumpy wall shafts support a cambered truss and collar roof with king posts, and the ceiling is painted. The west door is single chamfered, with paired lancets above that now light the base of the tower. The chancel arch features shafts as responds, with a painted text above the archway. The chancel was refitted in 1884, showcasing encaustic tiles and a painted panelled ceiling, along with a wood traceried reredos.

The church contains stained glass in all the principal windows, including one in the south aisle by Capronnier dated 1892, and another unsigned but similar in style from 1880. There are two windows by R.B. Edmondson of Manchester from 1880 and 1897, and the east window, designed in a medieval style, dates to 1871. The north aisle windows include one by Mayer and Co. of Munich from 1906, a window by Reuban Bennet of Manchester from 1904, and another by Heaton Butler and Bayne from 1906.
