Paulton Baptist Church

Paulton Baptist Church is a Baptist church and associated rooms located on Wintersfield Road, dated 1724 and rebuilt in 1827. The building features coursed rubble with freestone dressings and a concrete tile roof. The chapel has a gable facing the road, with rooms aligned behind it. It is two storeys high and has a galleried chapel. The main gabled elevation includes two tall pointed windows with moulded architraves, multi-paned glass, and gothick tracery, flanking a central doorcase. This doorcase is supported by ill-tutored columns and topped with a heavy pediment that is broken by an ogee-headed light above stone doors set in jambs with clustered mini-shafts. The plinth and thin panelled pilasters on each side rise to a plain pinnacle and a panelled finial. The chapel's returns also have two storeys with three windows divided by similar pilasters; these windows are ogee-headed within hollow-moulded architraves, featuring multi-panes and gothick tracery. The slightly lower rooms at the back are two storeys high with six pointed windows, plain architraves, and sashes with gothick tracery below, while the upper sections have 20th-century replacements. There is a 20th-century lean-to at the rear. Inside, the gallery is adorned with ornate iron panels.
