Church of the Holy Trinity

The Church of the Holy Trinity is a parish church dating back to the medieval period. It is constructed primarily of Quaternary flint with dressings of chalk and Lincolnshire Limestone, and has slate, tile, and lead roofs. The church consists of a west tower, a nave, north and south aisles, a north vestry, a south porch, and a chancel.

The west tower is embattled and dates to the 13th century, featuring four stages with angle buttresses. A Decorated two-light west window from the 14th century is set within the tower, featuring mouchettes. Lancet windows are located to the south and in the ringing chamber. Two-light bell openings have Y-tracery, a continuous drip mould, and a central shaft with a capital. A stair turret is located in the north-east corner, featuring slit lights. The south aisle window is also of Y-tracery design, mirroring the west tower window. The nave comprises four bays. The south aisle showcases three triangular-headed windows, each with two cusped ogee-headed lights and hood moulds that have figure stops, possibly reused. Between these windows are smaller, two-light square-headed windows. All windows have been restored; the south aisle appears to be of knapped flint, possibly refaced. The three-light east window features intersecting tracery and a hood mould. The north aisle incorporates a 19th-century vestry in the first bay, followed by three Y-tracery windows with hood moulds. The chancel is buttressed. To the south, there are two three-light Perpendicular windows with panel tracery; one window has an embattled demi-transom. A priest’s door with a continuous chamfered order and hood mould is present, alongside a two-light triangular-headed window with ogee-headed lights. To the north side of the chancel are three two-light Decorated windows, restored in the 19th century. A 19th-century Decorated east window of five lights is also present. The south porch, located to the first aisle bay, features diagonal buttresses and an ogee-headed light to the east. The archway has polygonal shafts and two chamfered orders to the arch. A 19th-century nave doorway incorporates figure stops.

Inside, the tower reveals springing for a vault. The nave arcades feature octagonal piers and double-chamfered arches, both restored. The tower and chancel arches are similarly restored. A double piscina with cusped ogee arches and a restored shaft, as well as sedilia with shafts, are also present. Some poppy-head bench ends have been re-used. The roofs are restorations from 1854 and 1886. The octagonal font is supported on shafts with cusped ogee panels between.
