Description
The Church of the Holy Trinity is a church built around 1875. It is constructed from snecked rock-faced red sandstone, with some yellow sandstone dressings and a tiled roof. The building includes a nave, north and south transepts, a north porch, a north organ chamber, and a south-east tower. The windows feature various types of Geometrical tracery. The tower has angle buttresses at its outer corners, which include a stair tower and is topped with a large stone finial. The tower also has a parapet with pinnacles at the other corners, and the paired bell openings are pointed with traceried heads.
On both the north and south sides, the nave has three bays to the east of the porch, and two bays on both sides to the west. The south side features 3-light windows with flat heads and round windows above, while the lower part of the north side is obscured by mid-20th century additions. The west wall also has similar additions, with two 2-light windows above flanking one of three lights. The transepts contain 5-light windows, and the east window has three lights.
Inside, the nave is divided by a mid-20th century partition wall located to the west of the porch entrances. The roof trusses rise from corbels, with alternate trusses of the false hammer-beam type. These trusses have upper and lower arch-braced collars linked by slim king-posts, and the roof is boarded at the upper collar level. To the west, north, and south of the crossing, the trusses are paired, and at the crossing, two trusses intersect. The chancel arch is moulded and pointed, featuring paired corbelled shafts as responds.
