Description
Lumbutts Methodist Church is a building reconstructed around 1860-1870, originally an early 19th-century chapel. It is made of hammer-dressed stone with ashlar dressings and has a slate roof. The church is two stories high and has a depth of five bays. The south entrance front features a steeply pitched gable with quoined buttresses that are flush with the wall. The entrance has a three-centred arched doorway with three orders and carved head-stops on the drip mould. On either side of the doorway are pairs of small lancet windows. The first floor has single lancets with a weathered sill course that steps up to the sill of a large two-centred arch main window, which rises into the gable and features plate tracery in a Gothic style. The sides have pairs of stilted arch lancets. The stained glass has been reset from the demolished Mankinholes Chapel. Inside, the chapel is at first floor level and has exposed trusses that were refurbished in the late 19th or early 20th century, along with simple Gothic details. The church is set in a good rural location within a moorland village.
