Church of St. Mary the Virgin

The Church of St. Mary the Virgin, built between 1884 and 1885 by Sir Arthur Blomfield, is designed in the Early English style. It features a chancel, nave, narthex, north transept (which serves as a vestry), a north aisle, and a north-west tower. The church has a steeply-pitched red tile roof and is constructed from flint with stone dressings and brick banding. Architectural details include buttresses, hood-moulds, flush and projecting bands, and a plinth. The smallest windows in the narthex are 4-cusped lights set in square stone frames. Most of the windows are lancets, but there are larger windows with traceried lights, including 2-light windows in the transept, a 3-light window in the east, and a 4-light window in the west. The tower is composed of three stages and features a slender broach spire, stone bands, corner buttresses with stone set-offs, and brick quoins. Inside, the walls are made of red brick with sparse stone dressings. The pointed arcade is supported by cylindrical columns with square moulded caps and bases. The exposed timber roof has arch-braced trusses resting on stone corbels, and the chancel is adorned with painted panel ceilings.
