Description

The Church of St Margaret and St Catherine was rebuilt on a new site in 1854 by Hakewill. It is designed in the early English style and is faced with coursed pebbles dressed with stone. The church features a nave, south aisles, chancel, a timber south porch, and a west tower topped with a tall stone parapet spire. The tower's parapet includes a string of ball-flower and angle buttresses. The south windows are lancets, while the chancel windows are in the perpendicular style. The roofs are gabled, peg-tiled, and consist of seven cants, which were re-used from the former medieval church. The south porch is a decorated feature, a fine specimen from the earlier church, along with a 14th-century door-leaf that has been reset in the south wall of the tower. This door has an ogee head and a sanctuary handle made of wrought iron.
