Description
The Church of St. Denys is a Grade II listed building constructed in 1884. It is built of brick, featuring sandstone and limestone dressings, and has a plain tile roof. The church is designed in a Neo-Norman style, consisting of a nave with an apsidal chancel and a vestry to the north. The chancel includes round-headed windows that alternate with blind arcading supported by columns with cushion capitals and round-headed arches. There is a plinth, a string course below the windows, and a carved corbel table beneath the roof.
The nave has four bays and features a plank door set within a three-order doorway on the south aisle. There are three additional single round-headed windows on the south aisle and four on the north, each flanked by piers with cushion capitals. The walls are buttressed, and the west wall contains two round-headed lights with a circular piercing above.
Inside, the round-headed arches and chancel windows are supported by piers with cushion capitals, similar to the nave windows. The chancel arch and vestry door also reflect this design. The brick walls are unplastered, with window embrasures made of alternating limestone and sandstone, and there is one order of shafts on either side. The church features wagon roofs and a painted tile floor in the chancel. A carved sandstone pulpit located in the northeast of the nave has marble dressings.
