Church Of St Margaret

The Church of St Margaret is a parish church that is now closed. It dates from the 15th century, with a rebuilding in 1812 and restoration in 1875. The church is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings, and it has render and slate roofs. The structure includes a nave with a bellcote, aisles, a south porch, a chancel, a north chapel, and a vestry.

The west wall is mostly plain, featuring only a small four-centred arched light and four stepped buttresses. At the apex, there is a gabled ashlar bellcote. The north wall has three three-light windows with intersecting tracery. The rendered north chapel contains a semi-circular headed window on the north side and a reset 15th-century window of two lights in the east wall, along with a similar window in the north wall of the chancel, which may be reused clerestory lights. The east window has three lights with 19th-century reticulated tracery. The south wall of the chancel features a two-light window, and there is another two-light window in the vestry. The south nave windows match those on the north side.

The later 19th-century gabled porch has a single chamfered outer arch, with 15th-century reveals and reset human head label stops. The inner doorway is four-centred and single chamfered, and it has been recut. Inside, there are three bay nave arcades with 15th-century octagonal piers and double chamfered arches. The chancel arch is plain and pointed, with double chamfered arches leading to the north chapel and the east end of the north aisle. Most fittings have been removed, except for a 19th-century west gallery and a facetted pulpit. At the east end of the south aisle, there is a marble wall monument from 1858 featuring a draped urn. The church is currently in an advanced state of decay.
