Church Of St Michael

The Church of St. Michael is a small parish church, with its earliest parts dating back to the 13th century, although it may incorporate the core of an aisle-less 12th-century church. Much of the structure is from the 14th century, though it underwent significant restoration in 1881. The building is constructed of sandstone rubble and consists of a nave, a south aisle, and a chancel.

The west bellcote, from the 13th century, features two round-arched openings set in paired gables. The west wall has a single lancet window, and there is a round-arched south doorway with banded outer shafts that include fillet mouldings and nailhead decoration. The medieval south porch is gabled and topped with a cross finial, and it has a former sundial below the gable. The south aisle is adorned with windows that have heavy tracery and hoodmoulds, which are supported by carved heads on stops. The church has buttresses with gablets, coped gables throughout, and a pitched roof without a parapet. The north wall of the nave features a blocked square window to the east and a blocked north door.

Inside, the nave has three bays, with an arcade that has double chamfered arches resting on octagonal piers. The bases of the easternmost piers have probable mortice holes for a former screen. There is a trefoiled piscina to the east of the aisle and some medieval encaustic tiles on the aisle floor. A tiny fragment of wall painting can be found on the north wall of the nave. The chancel is at the same level as the nave and has a barrel-vaulted roof with a stone cornice decorated with ball flowers and floral motifs. The east window features Victorian tracery, and there is a reredos. The altar rails date from the 17th to 18th century. The church contains much 19th-century stained glass and one early 14th-century crucifixion in the southwest window of the chancel. The pulpit is possibly from the 18th century, and the font is octagonal with incised decoration from the 14th century.
