Description

The Church of Saint Anne is a church built between 1912 and 1913 by architect R. B. Preston. It is constructed from irregularly coursed stone with ashlar dressings and features a slate roof. The building includes a nave with an aisle and a south-west tower, as well as a chancel that has a south vestry and a north organ chamber. The nave is four bays long, with a clerestory and aisles that each contain three-light ogee-headed openings. The church has a stone plinth, two-light traceried openings in the belfry, diagonal buttresses, and a stepped parapet. The two-bay chancel features a three-light cusped window on the east side. Inside, there is a doubled chamfered nave arcade supported by square columns with plain projecting capitals. The chancel arch frames a rood beam.
