Description

The Church of St Michael is a parish church dating from the 14th century, which was restored in 1903 by Detmar Blow. It features a west tower, nave, chancel, and a south porch. The church is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a Welsh slate roof.

On the exterior, there is a 2-light window with trefoil-headed tracery beneath a square hoodmould on the nave. The chancel includes plain lancets and lattice-leaded lights, along with a blocked south doorway under a pointed hoodmould. There is a plain 3-light lancet on the south side with 19th-century glass and a 2-light casement window leading to the gallery. The battlemented tower has a clock and leaded lights. The 20th-century south door is set under a span-arch lintel in a timber-framed porch featuring cusped braces, roughcast plaster, vertical plank panels, and cusped bargeboards.

Inside, the church has a queen post roof and a Norman chancel arch adorned with pellet and dogtooth ornamentation on the imposts. Notable interior features include a piscina, a linenfold pulpit, a restored west gallery, and box-pews. There are memorial tablets, including one for Dorothea Pytt who died in 1657, framed in a rustic Renaissance-style stone surround with ball-finials, as well as a cast-iron grave slab with arms for Richard Walker, who died in 1666, and Mary Walker, who died in 1673. Additional tablets commemorate Thomas Holland, who died in 1679, and Elizabeth Allat, who died in 1781.
