Church of Saint Kenelm

The Church of St Kenelm is a mid-15th century church, incorporating earlier fabric. It is built of coursed stone rubble with stone slate roofs, the tower roof being hidden. The church comprises a 2-bay chancel, a central tower, 2-bay transepts, and a 3-bay nave.

The north side features a gabled stone porch with a 2-centre arched doorway on columns. A C19 plank door is set within a 4-centre-arched doorway with a moulted surround and plain spandrels, with a 4-centre arched niche above and an image niche at the angle to the left of the door. A braced collar-truss roof covers the porch. A 2-light window with rectilinear tracery stands to the right of the nave, while 3-light rectilinear tracery windows are located to the left and right of the chancel and to the north end of the north transept. An east-facing window has 5 lights with rectilinear tracery. The south side has a blocked 2-centre arched doorway with a hood mould to the right of the nave. A 4-centre-arched doorway with a C19 plank door provides access to the chancel. A 2-light rectilinear tracery window is positioned to the left of the nave, while 3-light rectilinear tracery windows are situated to the left and right of the chancel and to the south end of the south transept. The west end features a blocked doorway with a 2-centre arched surround and a damaged carved hood mould, above which is a 5-light rectilinear tracery window. The tower has 2-light rectilinear tracery louvred openings to each side of the bell chamber and a battlemented parapet.

Inside, a reredos from 1876 by J.L. Pearson is present. Sedilia are located to the right of the altar. A 4-centre-arched doorway leads to the vestry, with a probable C16 plank door. The chancel has a braced collar-truss roof, and the altar area is panelled with moulded ribs and carved bosses. Early 20th century choir stalls are also present. A 2-centre chancel arch stands on shafted piers with squinches to each side. The vaulted crossing has rose bosses at the intersections of ribs. A mid-19th century stone pulpit is also notable, as are the shafted piers to the crossing. The north and south transepts, and the nave, have braced collar-truss roofs. A south transept contains an alabaster tomb-chest, likely belonging to William, Lord Lovell, featuring a recumbent figure in armour with feet on a lion and head on a helmet, and tracery panels with figures and armorial shields. A C15 octagonal stone font with traceried pier and quatrefoils to the cardinal sides of the octagonal basin is also present, alongside C15 pews in the nave. The church was likely built by William, Lord Lovell.
