The Old Methodist Church

The Old Methodist Church was completed in 1875, designed by Cattermole & Eade of Ipswich, with an adjoining Sunday School built in a similar style in 1897. The church is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond, accentuated by bands of yellow brickwork and stone dressings, with a slate roof. The front elevation features a central gable with a cross-shaped saddlestone and a small quatrefoil window. A large arched window has corbels, with the upper section being a rose window featuring five trefoil arches, flanked below by lancets with trefoil heads. A dripcourse is present. To the left is a bay housing an arched window with trefoil heads and an arched doorcase with gabled head sexfoil decoration, a plank door, and decorative hinges, along with a footscraper within a decorative gable. To the right of the central gable are three bays with buttresses and three arched windows, also with trefoil decoration and a similar doorcase. The left side elevation has two brick chimneys, a sexfoil window above, and two arched windows with trefoils below.

The interior showcases an unusually elaborate wooden roof in a 'spider's web' form, consisting of four intersecting arches and arched braced tie-beams with elaborate fretted decorations including quatrefoil motifs in the spandrels. The church retains its original north arch featuring a panelled organ gallery and two other upper galleries, original pews, and a pulpit.

Attached to the right-hand side is the Victoria Hall, dating from 1896-7, also in a similar style and built of red brick with stone dressings. It features a large gable with a hood moulding and a triple lancet window, with a quatrefoil at the top, below trefoil elements, flanked by similar single lancets. The adjacent Sunday School has a smaller gable with a blank quatrefoil, a triple sash window to the first floor, and triple Caernarvon arched windows to the ground floor, all with arched doorcases. The right side elevation of the Sunday School is cement rendered.
