Church of St Mary Magdalene

The Church of St. Mary Magdalene is a parish church designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott in the early English style and was built in 1878. It is constructed of wire-cut gault brick. The west end of the nave features a gabled bell-cote above a foiled vesica-shaped window and three lancets with double chamfered reveals. The nave consists of three bays, separated by two-stage buttressing, each bay containing a similar lancet, except for a round window with cinquefoil cusping located above the open-sided south porch, which is made of wood and has a gabled, tiled roof. The south doorway has a two-centred arch.

The east window of the chancel is round and includes a smaller foiled circle within, surrounded by radial colonettes. Below this, there are three chamfered lancets. Inside, the chancel arch is two-centred and consists of two chamfered orders, with the inner order resting on shafts with moulded capitals and springing from corbels carved with angels. The chancel retains its original tiled floor. There are two-centred, chamfered arches leading to the openings of the north vestry and south chapel. The pulpit is made of limestone and is octagonal on a stem, featuring Purbeck marble shafts at the angles. The font has a tapering octagonal bowl in the early English style, supported by a Purbeck marble stem with eight subsidiary detached shafts, each also made of marble and topped with moulded capitals and bases.
