Church of St Hildeburgh

The Church of St Hildeburgh is a church built between 1897 and 1899 by architect Edmund Kirby. It is constructed of red brick and terracotta, topped with a tiled roof. The church features a nave with aisles that have lean-to roofs, a chancel with a north organ loft and vestry, and a south chapel. The aisles are adorned with paired and triple lancet windows, while the northwest gabled porch is timber-framed on a brick base. The clerestory includes cusped octofoil windows, and the west end is marked by stepped gabled buttresses that rise above the roof level. There is a lean-to baptistry with three square traceried windows, four lancets under cusped gables, and flanking blind lancets topped with an octofoil. The chancel is supported by clasping buttresses and features an east window with a central cross and quatrefoils on the sides, along with a consecration stone beneath. The church has tall gabled chimneys on both the north and south sides. The vestry includes half-hipped gables and a porch under a cat-slide roof, with a hipped lean-to extension to the east. The chapel has a canted end with three lancets, and the south side features three lancets with gablets and a bell in an iron frame, along with a west vesica window above the aisle roof.

Inside, the church has five-bay nave arcades, including a narrow west bay, supported by round polished granite columns. The roof is scissor-braced on wall shafts, with a cornice at the clerestory. An octagonal font features tracery and symbols of the evangelists. The chancel and sanctuary arches have continuous moulding, and there is a low timber chancel screen along with a richly decorated octagonal pulpit and tester. The choir stalls and organ case are also present. The south arcade has three bays with a parclose screen and arcading above. The sanctuary boasts a richly decorated timber reredos featuring a panel of the Good Shepherd in tile and mosaic, while the north wall displays three painted panels. The south sedilia includes cusped arches and crocketed gables.
