Holy Trinity Church And Lamp House Immediately South West

Holy Trinity Church is an Anglican church built in 1854 by J.P. St Aubyn and refitted in the early 20th century by Canon J.S. Carah. It is constructed of granite rubble with granite dressings and features slate roofs with gable ends. The church has a plan that includes a nave and chancel, a north aisle, a north vestry, and a south porch, all designed in an Early English style.

The exterior showcases simple lancet windows with trefoil heads, a triple lancet at the east end, and catslide roofs over the north aisle and vestry on the north side of the chancel, which also has lancets. There is a small two-light window on the west side and a granite gabled bellcote above the west gable. The granite gabled porch at the west end of the south side of the nave features a moulded two-centred arch doorway, wrought-iron gates, a slate-on-edge floor, a scissor-braced roof, and war memorials with carved relief panels. The inner doorway has a chamfered two-centred arch. Adjacent to the porch is a detached lamp-house from the early 20th century, made of ashlar with a wide doorway and a slate mono-pitch roof.

Inside, the church has plastered walls and a four-bay granite north arcade with double-chamfered two-centred arches and circular piers with plain moulded capitals. The large double-chamfered two-centre chancel arch and the scissor-braced roofs of the nave and chancel are notable features. The early 20th-century refitting includes seating with carved bench ends, choir stalls, a screen, altar rail, altar, reredos with a painting of the First Eucharist, dado panelling, a lectern, a pulpit with a painted triptych, and an organ, all richly carved. The bench ends were carved by Hunt of Plymouth, and the dado was carved by William Mitchell of Pendonds. An aumbry incorporates a fragment of a medieval bench end, and there is a font and other fittings, along with stained glass windows.
