Description
The Church of the Holy Trinity is a Grade II listed building constructed between 1841 and 1842 by William Wilkinson of Oxford. It is built from coursed rubble limestone with ashlar dressings and features stone slate roofs. The church is designed in the Early English style and includes a nave, a south porch with a bell tower, a north vestry, and a chancel.
Architectural details include a moulded plinth, coped gables, and chamfered lancet windows. The nave consists of three bays of lancets and has a triple lancet window in the west wall. The lower chancel features one bay of lancets and a similar triple window on the east side, with the triple windows having taller central lights and shafts. Set-back buttresses are located at the south-east corner of the nave. The south porch is flanked by buttresses and has a pointed double-chamfered octagonal tower with broach stops and slit windows. The nave is gabled and also features buttresses and lancets.
