Description
The Church of St Aidan is a church built in 1902 by architect GF Bodley. It is constructed from squared, coursed Pennant rubble with limestone dressings and features a brick and slate roof. The church is designed in a Free Gothic Revival style and includes a chancel and an uncompleted nave with a south aisle. The eastern end has a gabled shape with clasping buttresses and a small, high three-light window with reticulated tracery. There is a vestry that has a three-light mullion window, and a south Lady Chapel with a window similar to that of the chancel.
On the northern elevation, the vestry is arranged in two bays and is lit similarly to the eastern end. The nave gable features a bellcote, and the truncated nave has two bays with windows consisting of five stepped lancets separated by buttresses. The south aisle showcases wide, Perpendicular style five-light windows with quatrefoil heads set within a label mould. The western end is plain and made of brick.
Inside, the two-bay chancel features arches that die into the jambs, a painted waggon roof with decorative bosses, and a wide chancel arch. The nave has a two-bay arcade with octagonal piers and a waggon roof, along with a two-bay south aisle. The interior is plain, with minimal decorative detailing or spatial effects, and remains incomplete.
