Church of St Barnabas

The Church of St Barnabas is a church that now serves as a Greek Orthodox church. It was built between 1884 and 1885 by Ewan Christian and was redecorated in 1900 and again in the late 20th century. The structure is made of stock brick with stone dressings and thin red brick bands, topped with slated pitched roofs featuring red tile cresting and a stepped brick eaves cornice, giving the nave and aisles a nearly uniform height.

Architecturally, the church is designed in the 13th-century Gothic style, with late 20th-century Byzantine-style paintings adorning the roofs and nave arcades. The layout includes a four-bay aisled nave and an apsidal chancel.

The exterior features a gabled west front with a central pointed arch entrance beneath a three-light plate tracery rose window, and a coped gable with horizontal stone blocks. To the left, there is a polygonal, full-height bell tower with arrow slit windows and a stone belfry that has shaped openings and a small spire. The aisles are recessed, with the south aisle showcasing a two-light plate tracery window above a rectangular three-light porch. This porch has an entrance and two three-light and one two-light plate tracery windows. The north aisle mirrors this design but includes an apse at the angle and an apsidal east end. The chancel is illuminated by five large lancet windows.

Inside, the nave features a barrel-vaulted roof and a vaulted chancel, all painted in Byzantine style. The chancel displays the Virgin Hodegetria, while the nave includes panelled scenes from the life of Christ and a frieze of apostles. The nave arcades consist of wide pointed arches on plain columns with octagonal capitals, and the spandrels are painted with angels and Biblical figures. There is also an original western gallery with a concave balustrade.

Historically, the building was let to the Greek Orthodox Church in 1957.
