Description
Holy Trinity Church is a church built around 1845-1846, possibly designed by T. Hellyer. It is a rebuilding of an 1820s church by John Nash, which collapsed due to the use of friable Bembridge stone. The church exhibits characteristics of Commissioner's Gothic style, although it is from a later period. It is constructed from Purbeck stone with Portland stone dressings, featuring a slate roof and a stone spire. The layout includes a five-bay nave, a north aisle, a chancel, a west tower with a stone broached spire, and a south porch. The west tower has two stages and features a louvred bell chamber with double lancets set in a larger arch, supported by stone corbels. The octagonal spire is complemented by an elaborate clock with a metal face. The nave is adorned with lancet windows that have dripstones and are separated by stepped buttresses. Inside, the nave features pointed arches on circular columns and a large pointed chancel arch. The roof has a slight scantling with collar beams, and there is a series of wall tablets from the early to mid-19th century.
