Christ Church

Christ Church is a church built in 1859 by Evans of Hine and Evans of Nottingham, with a tower and vestry added in 1874. The church is constructed of red brick with stone and Staffordshire blue brick detailing. It has steeply pitched plain tile roofs, with decorative diaper work to the nave, and stone-coped gables on moulded kneelers. The exterior features a plinth with stone copings, continuous blue brick flush hoods, and a moulded eaves cornice made of similar bricks.

The church comprises a four-bay nave and a two-bay chancel, with an adjoining tower and vestry to the north. The west elevation has a stepped triple lancet window, each lancet with a trefoil head and diagonal buttresses. The north elevation has four pairs of adjoining trefoil headed lancets with stepped buttresses. The three-stage tower to the east has a blank first stage, a moulded stringcourse, and pairs of slit windows on each side (now covered by clockfaces). Above these, two single three-light plate tracery, louvred bell openings are linked by a continuous sill stringcourse, above which is a steeply pitched saddleback roof with stone-coped gables. The north vestry has a canted north elevation with single trefoil headed lancets. The east window features blue brick diaper work, and the south chancel elevation has three trefoil headed lancets. To the south nave elevation, there are two pairs of adjoining trefoil headed lancets with a buttress between to the east and a gabled porch with a double chamfered pointed doorcase to the west.

The interior features a double chamfered brick chancel arch with a pierced timber soffit moulding, supported on column corbels with waterleaf capitals. It includes scissor truss roofs and plain contemporary pews. The chancel has cusped panelling to dado height and barleysugar balusters to the altar rails. A large painted organ from 1874 is located on the north side of the chancel, and a 20th-century marble pulpit is situated on the south side. A contemporary stone font with an octagonal bowl is in the nave. Stained glass is present in all chancel windows, with some dating to 1863, the east windows to 1874, and a window on the south side of the nave from 1908.
