Church Of Saint Clement, Spotland

The Church of Saint Clement in Spotland is a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1835 by architect Lewis Vulliamy. It is built of ashlar stone and features a slate roof. The church has a wide nave with a three-sided gallery and a small chancel topped with a bell-cote. The nave consists of five bays, each bay containing two lancet windows, a small central buttress, and a gableted weathered buttress. The eaves are corbelled and supported by octagonal corner pinnacles. The chancel includes low vestries on the north and south sides, a clock face, a three-light lancet window on the east, and a bell-cote with lancet openings, crocketed gables, and a small stone spire. Inside, the panelled gallery is supported by cast iron columns, and there is a carved timber chancel screen, pulpit, and a stained glass window. The church was built for the Church Commissioners, and a similar design was created by Vulliamy for St. John the Baptist in Smallbridge.
