Holy Trinity

Holy Trinity is a church built between 1820 and 1822 by Francis Goodwin. It is a notable example of a Commissioner's church in the Decorated Perpendicular Gothic style. The building has a conventional rectangular plan with a shallow canted apse, and it is faced in Bath stone. The exterior features spirelet pinnacled buttresses that divide the windows, along with octagonal pinnacled turrets at the corners and a larger pair flanking the recessed full-height entrance bay beneath a parapeted gable. The soffit above the large decorated west window has a lierne pattern of ribs, and the window's tracery is made of cast iron. The shallow porch is contained within the recess and has a tripartite composition with an ogee arch for the central doorway, topped with an ornate finial. The east end above the apse features a cast iron tracery rose. Inside, the church has an exceptionally good interior with all its fittings and galleries. Although the coved ceiling still partially remains, the high-quality decoration for the period has been stripped, and a new floor has been inserted.
