Description
The Church of St. Paul is a church built between 1839 and 1840 for the Andrew family, with the chancel added in 1866 by James Hunt and a vestry constructed in 1905. The church is made of tooled ashlar with a slate roof, while the chancel features rock-faced snecked stone. Its design resembles a galleried Commissioners' church, consisting of a seven-bay nave that has a projecting plinth and a small eaves cornice. Each bay contains a plain lancet window and a weathered buttress, which is diagonal at the corners. The central west tower is three stages high, featuring diagonal weathered buttresses, clock faces on the second stage, lancet windows in the belfry, and a coped parapet, though the pinnacles are missing. The chancel is polygonal with two bays, similar in style with lancets and buttresses, and it has a three-light east window. The interior is plain, featuring a west gallery and stained glass windows.
