Golant Methodist Church With Attached Schoolroom

Golant Methodist Church, built around 1875, includes an attached schoolroom that incorporates an earlier building. The church is constructed from slatestone rubble and is rendered, featuring a slate roof with crested ridge tiles and gable ends. The schoolroom is made of slatestone rubble and cob, partly painted, with a slurried slate roof that has a half hip at one end; the rear slope is covered in asbestos slate with ridge tiles.

The church has a single auditorium layout, with the side facing Cowshit Lane serving as the front entrance, leading into an internal porch. The schoolroom is attached to the right side at a lower ground level, accessible from the right side of the church and through a door at the right end. The church sits on a stepped plinth and has two tall round-arched windows, each with two lights and a roundel at the top, along with plain double doors and an overlight to the right. There are two granite foundation stones on the lower part of the wall, one inscribed "LOCAL PREACHERS STONE MR LANYON" and the other "SUNDAY SCHOOL STONE MR JAGO." The left side of the church features two similar windows and a cellar door with strap hinges. The rear wall is not rendered and has two similar windows in brick surrounds, while the right gable end is blind.

The attached schoolroom has a lower roof level and rests on rough footings. Its front features two 16-pane sash windows from the mid-19th century, and the right end has a plain door. The rear of the schoolroom has an upper level made of cob, with an iron cross tie. Inside, the church has an internal porch finished in pine boarding and a ceiled roof. There is a wooden rostrum with front panels made of cast iron, raked pews behind the rostrum, and lath panels of cast iron at the front, rising in three tiers. A central organ is located at the rear, with short straight stairs on either side of the rostrum featuring cast iron balustrades and a similar communion rail. The auditorium contains plain wooden pews and plain dado panelling, and the rear wall has a wide segmental arch with a panelled screen and plain double doors leading to the schoolroom.
