Description

Rayleigh Baptist Church is a 19th-century church constructed of brick and stucco, topped with a grey slate roof. It features an open pediment supported by brackets, with small brackets at the eaves cornices. On the first floor, there are three round-headed small paned vertically sliding sash windows, each with aprons, along with similar recessed windows to the right and left of the central recessed round-headed double doors, which are angle boarded. The ground floor showcases pilasters with bases and capitals, moulded arches with keystones, and blocked segmental-headed windows on the returns.
