Description
The Church of St Michael is a church that dates back to the 12th century and was enlarged in the 14th century. The west end was rebuilt and a bellcote was added between 1890 and 1892 by architect Ewan Christian. The building is constructed from coursed squared rubble, with some cobbles and brick, and features freestone dressings around the openings. The bellcote is timber-framed and has a slate roof.
The church has a three-bay nave with a north aisle and a west bellcote, as well as a two-bay chancel. The nave includes a buttress with offsets and two square-headed two-light windows with ogee tracery, along with a trefoil-headed lancet window at the extreme east. These flank a pointed south door that has continuous double hollow chamfers and is topped with a hood-mould. A similar door is located on the north wall, also under a filleted hood-mould with face-stops. The nave features a chamfered corbel table.
The bellcote has timber louvres and a pyramidal roof topped with a wind-vane. The chancel contains two square-headed windows, each with two round-headed cusped lights, and an inverted cusped motif above the mullions. There is a round-arched priests' door with a continuous narrow chamfer, and a three-light pointed east window that has intersecting tracery, along with a raised coped gable and a cross finial.
Inside, there is no arcade in the north aisle. The church features an early 19th-century organ case with inlaid wood, and a 19th-century octagonal font set on a cylindrical pier and octagonal base.
