Church Of St Martin

The Church of St Martin is a parish church dating to 1847, designed by W A Nicholson. It is constructed of coursed ironstone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings, and some rendered brick. The roofs are covered with fishscale tiles, with stone coped gables featuring ornate chevroned terminations and finials, and plain tiles elsewhere. The church comprises a nave, a south porch, a rectangular chancel, and a north vestry, with a west bellcote. An ashlar plinth and moulded stringcourse run around the entire building.

The west front is flanked by two-stage angle buttresses, featuring two pointed lights with nook shafts, hoodmoulds, and label stops, with an elongated oculus above. The bellcote has a pointed opening with nook shafts, a hoodmould, and a finial. The north side of the nave has two pointed windows, also with nook shafts, hoodmoulds, and label stops. A small chimney is located at the east end of the nave. The chancel has a wooden lean-to with a corrugated iron roof. The rendered brick vestry has a plain tile roof, two small buttresses, and a pointed east window. The east end of the chancel has a central two-stage buttress, flanked by two pointed lights with nook shafts and chip star moulded heads, topped by a trefoil. The south side of the chancel features a flattened triangular-headed doorway with chipstar decoration, nook shafts, a hoodmould, and a finial above a plank door. Further buttressing is present, followed by a pointed window with nook shafts, chip star decoration, a hoodmould, and label stops. A two-stage buttress marks a slight projection of the nave, with a two-light window, nook shafts, hoodmould and label stops. The porch has squat angle buttresses and a pointed south doorway of two orders, hoodmould and labelstops. The interior of the porch has a pointed doorway with a filleted roll moulding, chipstar decoration, flanking shafts, a hoodmould, label stops, and a plank door. The pointed chancel arch contains keeled shafts flanked by nook shafts, shaft rings, and chipstar decoration, a hoodmould, and label stops. The nave roof is supported on ornate corbel heads, and the vestry door is Caenarvon-headed. The church contains 19th-century fittings and monuments.
