Description
St Barnabas House is a church that has been converted into flats. It was built in 1876 by the architectural firm Flockton & Abbot and underwent conversion in 1990. The building is constructed from rock-faced stone with ashlar dressings and features gabled and hipped slate roofs with coped gables, showcasing the Gothic Revival style.
The church has an apsidal sanctuary and crypt, a nave, aisles, a south-west tower, and a north-west porch. The exterior includes a plinth and buttresses, and the windows have been reglazed. The apse features three 2-light pointed arched windows with quatrefoils set on a sillband, while the crypt has three flat-headed 2-light windows. The nave's west gable has a pointed arched recess with a cusped round window above, and below it are two 2-light pointed arched windows with quatrefoil heads, separated by a major mullion.
The gabled north aisle consists of five bays, with a corbel table and bays divided by pilasters and buttresses, and it includes four 2-light pointed arched windows. To the west, there is a shallow porch with a steep pitched gable and a moulded pointed arched door. The east gable has a blocked round window and a coped gable stack, while the west gable features a graduated 3-light pointed arched window with a hoodmould. The similar south aisle has four bays and four 2-light windows, with the east gable containing a blocked 2-light pointed arched window and a blocked round window above.
The square south-west tower has three stages, with a plinth, angle buttresses, a string course, a corbel table, and a coped parapet with corner pedestals and blind crosslets. A shallow square stair turret is located to the south-east. The lower stage includes a single lancet window with a hoodmould on the west side, a moulded pointed arched doorway with single shafts and trefoils in the spandrels on the south, a flat single lancet window to the south, and slit lights to the east and west. The bell stage features two rebated pointed arched openings with louvres on each side, linked by a billeted impost band. The interior has not been inspected.
