Church of St Stephen

The Church of St Stephen is a parish church featuring a tower that was remodeled in 1601, as indicated by a flint frieze. The building is constructed from flint with stone and brick dressings, and the east and west walls are faced with ashlar. The nave and chancel are combined into one space, and there is a north-west tower, along with north and south aisles and a north transept chapel.

The tower has three stages and is supported by diagonal buttresses. The outer door features attached shafts and a triple order two-centre arch with a drip-mould. Inside, there is a two-bay stone vault with a central bell-hoist hole and carved bosses. The inner doorway has a two-centre arch with a rose motif in the outer order. The two-leaf timber door is adorned with a quatrefoil border and three lights of blind Perpendicular tracery.

On the north side of the tower, there is a second-stage two-light Y-tracery window, and above it, a two-light bell-opening is flanked by blind windows in flushwork. The tower stages are marked by shields and flushwork bands. The nave and chancel have eight bays, featuring six three-light Perpendicular windows with two-centre arches along the north side. A chapel is located in the fourth bay from the west, with diagonal buttresses and a statue niche in the top stage. The north wall has a three-light Perpendicular window with a two-centre arch, and there are three-light windows in the east and west walls with four-centre arches.

The clerestory has sixteen three-light windows with pilasters between them. The east window is a five-light Perpendicular window with a two-centre arch. The west door is embellished with spandrels and a lozenge frieze above, which bears the date 1550. Above this, there is a large six-light Perpendicular window with a central transom and a four-centre arch, flanked by end buttresses topped with crocketed spirelets. The south aisle has seven bays with octagonal piers featuring sunk concave panels on each face. Stone tracery panels are located below the clerestory windows, and the roof is a Hanmerbeam design with pierced spandrels and long wall-posts supported on corbels. The east window contains early 16th-century stained glass from the monastery of Mariawald.
