Parish Church (Dedication Unknown)

The Parish Church, whose dedication is unknown, is a Grade I listed building located in Compton Wynyates. It was nearly entirely rebuilt around 1665 and is constructed from ashlar ironstone with a stone plinth. The church features a steeply pitched M-shaped roof, covered with stone slate in diminishing courses at the front and 20th-century tiles at the rear. The gables are stone coped, and the layout includes a double-nave and a west tower.

On the east side, there are two round-headed windows with three lights, each having cusped heads and hood moulds with lozenge-shaped label stops. The north and south sides of the naves each have two four-light windows with similar cusped heads, hood moulds, and label stops, with buttresses positioned between them. The south doorway is framed by a stone surround with alternating rustication and features a plank door.

The west tower consists of three stages and includes pointed arched two-light windows with Y tracery, hood moulds, and label stops at the belfry level. It is topped with an embattled parapet adorned with gargoyles and has string courses and angle buttresses.

Inside, the two naves are separated by a four-bay arcade supported by quatrefoil piers. The roofs have been renewed. There is a three-sided 18th-century communion rail, a pulpit with an ogee sounding board dating from around 1720, and 18th-century box pews. The stone font, featuring an oval bowl and a baluster stem with a wooden cover, likely dates from the late 17th century. The church also houses a set of 17 hatchments and several damaged 15th-century alabaster effigies of the Compton family, including a lady from the 15th century and Sir Thomas Compton, who died in 1528, as well as two ladies from the late 16th century. A marble wall tablet commemorates Sir William Compton, who died in 1663, and there is a brass floor plaque dedicated to him from the same year. Fragments of the original painted plaster ceiling, displayed on the west wall, depict representations of night and day.
