Description
The Church of St. Michael and All Angels is a Grade II* listed church located in Pirbright, rebuilt in 1784 by Thomas Woods, who was the Churchwarden. The chancel was altered in the mid-19th century. The church features blue and brown brick in header bond, with red brick dressings on a galleted heathstone plinth for the nave, and a galleted heathstone tower to the west and chancel to the east. It has a plain tiled roof with a lead spike over the tower.
The structure includes a box nave with a square tower to the west, a gabled porch to the south, an aisle to the north, and a chancel to the east, which has a vestry to the north and an organ bay to the south. The battlemented tower has round-arch, louvred openings in the upper stage on all faces, and a roundel on the south side. There is a 20th-century, part-glazed door under a stone traceried overlight at the west end, along with three round-arched, leaded windows in gauged brick surrounds on the north and south sides. The east end features a decorated stone tracery window connected by a cill band, and there are 20th-century doors under a round arch surround in the gabled porch to the south.
Inside, there is a post and lintel Doric arcade on the north side with three tapering columns on panelled wooden pedestals. A gallery spans the west end supported by thin iron columns, with a balustrade above. The chancel arch, dating from the 19th century, leads to a small chancel with a square panel and a painted ceiling, and there is a blind arch on the south side. The church contains 20th-century fittings and a 19th-century octagonal stone font with panelled sides decorated with quatrefoil panels on a panelled, octagonal stem.
