Former Hamstead Road Baptist Church

The former Hamstead Road Baptist Church dates to approximately 1890 and was constructed in an Early English style using red sandstone with ashlar sandstone dressings. It features a front northwest tower with pinnacled angle buttresses and a broached spire. The principal northern facade has an arched entrance framed by granite shafts, with carved spandrel panels and an open cinquefoil within a stilted two-centred arch. A finialed and chequer-panelled gable sits above an arcaded balustrade, which flanks a lean-to roof extending to the sill of the central, slightly projecting west window, featuring quatrefoils and a central sexfoil at its apex. The main body of the church is surmounted by a finial. To the south, projecting towards the road, is an apsidal chapel wing, likely a baptistry, with gables to each face, above coupled lights and cinquefoils set within circular frames.
