Church of the Holy Ascension

The Church of the Holy Ascension is a church built in 1839 by H.J. Underwood of Oxford, with a chancel added in 1876. It is constructed of rubble stone with ashlar dressings and features a Lancet Gothic style. The church has a three-bay nave that is broad and aisleless, topped with a low pitched stone tiled roof. It includes side buttresses and diagonal angle buttresses, with a string course at the level of the top set-off and window heads. There is a dentil eaves course, and the more elaborate west front features a bellcote and a two-light west window with a quatrefoil light above, all made of ashlar and with a hoodmould that steps up from the string course. The gabled porch has a shafted moulded arch and carved foliage capitals. The chancel is two bays and made of crazed rubble, with cusped lancets and three lancets at the east end, along with a projecting plinth and a priest's door featuring ornate ironwork.

Inside, the church has a thin false hammerbeam nave roof and an arched braced collar truss with crown posts in the chancel. The east window has moulded rear arches and triple shafts between the lights. In the nave, there are four panels of sacred texts painted on metal in a 15th-century illuminated manuscript style. The church was founded by the Tractarian E.B. Pusey.
