Description
Christ Church is a parish church dating from 1839, with a chancel, vestry, and organ chamber added in 1884 by John Dodsley Webster. The church is constructed of textured ashlar with ashlar dressings, and has slate roofs. It is designed in the Gothic Revival style.
The plan comprises a chancel, vestry, nave, and west tower. The exterior features a plinth, buttresses, coped gables (those to the east having crosses), and 2 bays to the chancel, with graduated triple lancet windows to the east gable. A chamfered pointed arched doorway, leading to a basement, is located below to the right. Single lancet windows are present on the south side. A lean-to vestry is attached to the north, featuring a capped side wall stack. A pointed arched doorway flanked by a single lancet is on the north side. The 3-bay nave has three plain single lancet windows on each side, separated by slender buttresses. The west tower has three stages, with a renewed parapet and stumps of corner pinnacles. A chamfered pointed arched doorway, with mask stops and ornamental hinges, is on the west side of the ground stage, alongside a single lancet. Single lancets are also present to the north and south. The second stage is blank, while the bell stage has tall single, louvred openings on each side, and a raised panel in the parapet containing a clock.
The chancel, now used as a meeting room, has a double coved arch with imposts and a late 20th-century glazed wooden screen and doors. It features an arch braced roof with corbels, and has a late 19th-century stained glass east window. South side windows are present. A moulded arch and blocked doorway are on the north side. The rendered nave has a plaster ceiling with three rosette ventilators and moulded stucco span beams with arch braces. A splayed pointed arched door is found to the left of the chancel arch. The porch, located under the tower, has a cross beam ceiling and chamfered pointed arched doorways with studded board doors. Internal fittings include prayer desks (both 19th and late 20th century), a late 20th-century lectern, and a late 20th-century font. Memorials include a tablet with a portrait medallion to Thomas Dunn, dated 1871, and two traceried wooden war memorial panels from 1918.
