Description
The Church of the Holy Trinity is a church built around 1780 by Joseph Jagger. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a stone slate roof with a modillioned eaves cornice. The church has a square two-tier tower at the east end above the chancel, adorned with gothic battlements and pinnacles. The building is two storeys high and consists of three by five bays. There is a ground floor impost band and a first floor sill band. The first floor has segmental headed windows, while the ground floor features round arched windows. The entrance is located on the south side in the right-hand bay, which has a segmental pediment supported by consoles. The entrance includes a moulded doorcase with double doors and a rectangular leaded fan. Inside, the church has a gallery on three sides supported by slender Doric columns, a flat ceiling with applied panel moulding, and an ogee bracket cornice. There are also early 19th-century wall memorials.
