Description
This is a former Congregational church dating to the late 18th century, with an addition made in 1896. The original building is constructed of Flemish bond red brick with a black glazed pantiled roof. The church is single-storied and oriented north-south.
The south-facing front, which serves as the entrance, has three bays with two 3-light switch tracery Gothic windows and a central door, all set beneath rubbed brick Gothic arches. Raised, chamfered brick quoins are present on the west-facing angles. The east and north faces each feature two 3-light switch tracery Gothic windows, also under rubbed brick Gothic arches, with two additional lancet windows above. A nave addition from 1896 has been inserted on the south side, set at a right angle. A dentil brick cornice runs along the eaves, and the roof is hipped.
The interior features a flat ceiling with a deep cove.
