Christ Church

Christ Church is a church built in 1859 by Corson, with a tower added in 1861 by G. F. Bodley. It features rock-faced stone and a slate roof. The building has a wide nave with a small chancel and a north-west tower/porch, all designed in the Gothic revival style. The nave consists of six bays, each with a projecting plinth and weathered buttresses, and includes two-light windows with plate tracery. The large roof is mostly unbroken, except for dormer windows and vents. The chancel has three bays with three lancet windows, diagonal buttresses, and a three-light east window. The four-stage tower is a prominent feature, tall and square with an unusual saddle roof, and has weathered diagonal buttresses only on the north side. It includes a pointed doorway below the second stage's lancet, blind cusped openings in the third stage, and three lancet belfry openings in arched recesses with attached columns. Inside, there are arch-braced collar roof trusses supported by gigantic carved stone corbels, along with a carved stone font, pulpit, and reredos, as well as timber fittings and stained glass.
