Description
Christ Church is a church built in 1863, designed in the Early English style. It features roughly coursed sandstone blocks with ashlar dressings and has plain tiled roofs. The church includes a nave, a south transept chapel, a chancel to the east, and a gabled porch to the south. On the ridge of the nave roof, there is a bellcote with a spire on a shingled tapering base, which houses a louvred square bell chamber beneath a needle spire. The building has lancet windows above a plinth moulding, with paired lancets on the chancel. The east window consists of three lights and a triple roundel, while the west side has two two-light windows, one on either side of a central buttress. The south porch is gabled and buttressed, featuring a panelled south door.
Inside, the church has a braced roof with principal posts resting on corbels. The chancel has a triple bay layout with a 19th-century chancel arch, flanked by half-pier responds and nook shafts supported by carved angel corbels. The south transept chapel features a triple arcade, with the western bay now blocked. Central paired black marble piers have crocketed foliage capitals. There is a late 19th-century wall painting on the east wall, along with a painted and panelled reredos at the altar. The church contains 19th-century fittings, including a panelled wooden pulpit with diagonally boarded sides and a round bowl font on a central stem with attached piers.
