Church Of St Dubricius

The Church of St Dubricius is a parish church that dates back to the 13th century, featuring a nave from that period, a west tower from the 14th century, and a late 14th century chancel. It underwent restoration in the mid to late 19th century. The church is constructed of sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and has a 20th-century concrete tiled roof.

The west tower is built in three stages, with the upper stages noticeably offset above the ground stage. It has a plain parapet, a square-headed loop on the west side of the ground stage, and a pointed loop on the second stage. Each side of the bell stage features two trefoil-headed lights set within a two-centred arch-headed opening. The nave includes a largely restored lancet window on the left and a similar window, along with another window featuring two trefoil-headed lights and a quatrefoil in a roundel, to the right of a 19th-century gabled timber-framed porch. The doorway has a two-centred arch with chamfered jambs. The north wall has a 19th-century two-light window to the right of a blocked north doorway, a single lancet, and a 13th-century two-light window to the left.

The chancel features square-headed windows with two trefoiled ogee-headed lights flanking a late 15th or early 16th-century doorway with chamfered jambs and a four-centred head. There are two similar windows on the north side, and the restored 14th-century east window has three trefoiled ogee-headed lights with tracery and a two-centred head.

Inside, there is a 15th or 16th-century font with an octagonal bowl and splayed underside, supported by an octagonal stem and square base. The chancel contains a 14th-century piscina with a chamfered and rebated two-centred head and a damaged quatrefoiled bowl. Tomb recesses with low segmental pointed arches are found in the north and south walls of the nave.

Notable monuments include those on the west wall for Thomas Goode, who died in 1664, featuring a coat of arms and cherub heads with a scrolled bolection mould surround, and for Ann Goode, who died in 1668, also with figure and cherub heads and a scrolled bolection mould surround. The church contains many other memorials, mostly from the 19th century, dedicated to the Goode family in the chancel.
