Description
The Church of St Bartholomew is a parish church built in 1848 by William Butterfield. It features randomly coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. The church includes a nave with a western bellcote, a chancel, a south porch, a north aisle, and a vestry. A tall stepped and gabled central buttress at the west end supports the gabled double bellcote. On either side of the buttresses, there are single two-light windows at a high level, featuring trefoil heads and a quatrefoil above, along with shorter stepped buttresses. The west end of the north aisle has a two-light Y-traceried window, with three similar windows on the north side and a buttress that forms a chimney. The east end of the aisle has a cusped quatrefoil. The north side of the chancel contains a single cusped lancet and a broad ashlar stack. The east wall of the vestry has a two-light window, while the chancel features a three-light decorated window. The south wall of the chancel includes a small high-level pointed window, a pair of cusped lancets, and a priest's door with a low cusped head. The south wall of the nave has three two-light windows with cusped flowing tracery. The gabled south porch has a double chamfered outer arch with a pierced cusped head, and above it are three stepped ogee-headed lancets.
Inside, the church has a four-bay nave arcade with double chamfered arches supported by octagonal piers and capitals. Above the nave arcade, painted angels hold Allelulia banners. The chancel arch is double moulded and rests on corbels. The east window of the north aisle features a scalloped rear arch. In the chancel, there is a cusped pointed doorway leading to the vestry. The south wall includes a double sedilia with cusped ogee heads and a cusped pointed piscina. The fittings are all from the 19th century, including an octagonal font.
