Description
The Church of the Holy Trinity, built in 1837 by John Latham, is a red brick structure with a slate roof, featuring a nave, a small west tower, and a short chancel in the Norman style. The nave consists of five bays, each marked by lesenes and containing one round-headed window, complemented by a stone sill band beneath and a corbel table above. The simple west tower has embracing buttresses, a round-headed doorway on the north side with stone dressings, including Norman responds, and a round-headed window above. There is a similar window at the ground floor on the west side, and a lean-to on the north side. The second stage of the tower is finished with a stone table that supports an octagonal bellcote with round-headed openings, which originally had a small spire.
Inside, the church features a west gallery supported by two iron columns with pierced brackets, a Norman-style chancel arch with cushion-capitals, box pews, and a 17th-century octagonal wooden pulpit with carved panels. The frieze of the pulpit is inscribed with the words: "CRIE:ALOVD/SPARE :NOT /LIFT:UP:THY/VOYCE /LIKE:A:TRVM/PET," which is from the Church of St. Michael in Kirkham.
