Description

Trinity Reformed Church is a Congregational church designed by Ernest George and Peto, built in 1876-1877 in the Vernacular Revival style. The church is constructed of stock brick with red brick and stone dressings, topped with a tiled roof featuring ridge tiles. It consists of a nave and chancel combined, with aisles and a clerestorey, as well as a porch incorporated into the north aisle.

The west front features a large two-tier, five-light round-headed window with sexfoil and cinquefoil lights above lancets, along with a brick-lined arch and bands. The north aisle has a lean-to porch with an arched doorcase and a gable above, surmounted by a cross. The clerestories on each side have four five-light half-gables with stained glass leaded lights, and below them are paired lancets separated by buttresses.

Inside, the church has a brick arcade supported by Corngrit Bath Stone columns with foliate capitals. The scissor-braced roof includes dormer windows in the nave, which anticipate the designs by R. Norman Shaw for St Michael and All Angels' Church in Bedford Park. The interior retains original box pews, a panelled reredos, and a pulpit. Notably, the tower was never built. This church is significant as Ernest George's only surviving unaltered church, following the fire that destroyed St Andrew's Guildersfield Road.
