Church of St Alban

The Church of St. Alban is a Roman Catholic church built in 1849 by architects Weightman and Hadfield. Constructed from stone with a slate roof, it features a single-vessel nave and chancel with seven bays, alongside aisles that have lean-to roofs and a southwest tower. The architectural style is reminiscent of around 1300. The tower is supported by clasping buttresses, and the west entrance showcases three orders of shafts with a canopied niche above that contains a statue of the Virgin and Child. The bell stage of the tower includes two-light plate tracery openings, and there is a corbelled parapet with battlements. The nave is adorned with four-light clerestory windows, while the north aisle features deep moulds with carved stops. The west entrance has a shallow porch and dog-tooth moulding.

Inside, there is a seven-bay double-chamfered arcade on round piers, and the nave has a waggon roof that is panelled over the one-bay chancel. The chancel and its flanking chapels are fitted with alabaster altars and reredoses, along with a continuous altar rail. An octagonal alabaster pulpit with traceried sides is also present. A small side chapel at the west end of the south aisle contains an alabaster altar and reredos. Additionally, there is a wooden west gallery featuring an arcaded balcony and a canted projection, along with some 19th-century stained glass at the east end.
