Description
The Church of St George and attached presbytery were built between 1925 and 1928 by Leonard Williams, with completion in 1927 by Eustace Salisbury. The church is constructed of stock brick with stone dressings, and features stone piers and internal decoration. It has tile roofs, tile hanging to the first floor of the house, and a rendered ground floor.
The church consists of a two-bay aisle nave with a narthex and a vaulted, octagonal western baptistery. There are porches to the north and south, and transepts; the north transept has a porch and a two-bay side chapel, while the south transept connects to the house and sacristy in the chancel south aisle. A blocked arcade denotes the sacristy, and the chancel has two bays and a north chancel chapel. The ceiling is flat-boarded over a deep cove. The building is in the Perpendicular style, with four-pointed arches and windows of two or three lights with cusping. There are doors to the north and south porches and the north transept, with hood-moulds and dripstone blocks awaiting future carving. The south porch has a statue of St George in an elaborate stone niche. The four-pointed arcades have deeply-moulded circular capitals; the arcade abutting the sacristy is blocked but has a panelled screen with a three-seat sedilia, a stoop, and linenfold panelling. Open, traceried screens of high craftsmanship separate the north aisle chapel from the chancel and transept. The choir benches also have cusped tracery. A panelled reredos with tester and a Sarum altar with angels are present. A stone pulpit stands under the rood, and the north aisle chapel has a gilded reredos and recticulated tracery panelling.
The attached house, accessed through the south transept and sacristy, is of four asymmetrical bays and two storeys with dormers, and has a single stack. All windows have mullions and leaded lights. The porch, located left-of-centre, has a four-centred arch leading to a panelled door. The rear elevation is similar, with a catslide roof to the left.
