Description
Holy Trinity Church is a parish church built in 1840. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring stone and moulded brick dressings. The church has a slate roof with a stone ridge and moulded stone coped gables, which include a ridge cross on the east side. The building has a plinth and a coved brick eaves band, with stepped clasping buttresses at each corner of the nave and tower.
The church has a simple plan with an entrance located in the western tower and a three-bay nave. The two-stage western tower features a blind chamfered lancet window with a stone hoodmould and sill on the west side, a similar window on the south side with diamond leaded lights, and a chamfered and cavetto moulded pointed doorcase on the north side, complete with a stone hoodmould and carved head labelstops. Above these, there are louvred chamfered lancet bell openings with stone hoods and sills on all sides. A moulded stone stringcourse runs above, topped by embattled brick parapets with stone ridgeback copings. The flanking nave walls beside the tower are blank.
The north and south elevations of the nave are identical, each featuring three chamfered lancets with stone hoods and sills, also with diamond leaded lights. The east window has a four-centred arch and Y-tracery with a hoodmould. Inside, the church is very plain, with a panelled wooden gallery supported by iron columns at the west end, plain bench pews, and 19th-century knobbed balustered altar rails. There is a cusped wooden pulpit and a panelled reredos behind the altar. On the east wall, large painted plaques flank the altar, with the commandments on the south side and the Lord's Prayer and the Creed on the north side. At the west end of the church, below the gallery, there is a 20th-century panelled vestry on the north side, and a staircase within the tower leads up to the gallery.
