Church of St Nicholas

The Church of St Nicholas is a parish church largely dating to the 13th century, with a slightly later 13th-century west tower. Later medieval period aisles were removed, and the tower received a 16th-17th century bell stage with subsequent repairs to the blocking of the nave arcade. A restoration occurred in 1894 and again around 1985. The church is constructed of coursed clunch, fieldstone, and clunch with limestone dressings.

The west tower is of three stages and has a timber spire with a leaded, embattled parapet. The ground and first stages of the tower are 13th century, with two-stage angle buttressing. A restored two-light west window is set within a two-centred arch with Y-tracery. The 18th-century restored bell stage incorporates red brick with clunch quoins, and two-light openings in segmental brick arches, with returned gables showing the original medieval nave roof. The south wall features a nave arcade of three bays. The two-centred arches are single orders, visible on the interior, supported by octagonal columns with moulded capitals; these columns have been altered, and the bays are blocked with 16th-17th century red brick. A circa 1400 window of two trefoil lights with reticulated tracery has been reset into one bay. The chancel wall is continuous with the outer wall of the nave. The north and south walls of the chancel contain two circa 13th-century windows, each of two lights with Y-tracery. The east wall features a three-light window in a two-centred arch with intersecting tracery and single-stage 13th-century buttressing.

Inside, the roof tie beams are replacement features. The 13th-century tower arch is two-centred and has two chamfered orders. A circa 13th-century double piscina is set within the south wall of the chancel, featuring a moulded round arch rising from responds consisting of attached shafts with moulded caps and bases. The arch is intersected by two uniform half arches springing from a central shaft that has been removed, with two octofoil drains contained within a moulded frame. A circa 13th-century limestone font features a tapering bowl with a roll-moulded lower edge, a round stem, and plinths with a chamfered upper edge.
