Church Of St Lawrence

The Church of St Lawrence is an Anglican chapel built between 1859 and 1861. It is constructed from coursed and dressed limestone and features dry Delabole slate roofs. The building has an apsidal chancel, a five-bay nave, a south transept, an aisle, porches, and a west bay. It is designed in the Early Pointed style, influenced by Ecclesiological architects like White who worked in Cornwall.

The exterior includes gabled buttresses that are connected by a sill course beneath paired and deeply-splayed lancets leading to the chancel. The east porch is gabled and has a hoodmould over a pointed-arched plank door that opens to the south transept, which features paired lancets and a bellcote above a two-light window with Geometrical tracery. The nave has small circular clerestory windows adorned with trefoils and quatrefoils beneath the eaves. The south aisle contains splayed lancets and a porch with a hoodmould over a pointed-arched doorway. The north elevation of the nave has a gabled and slightly projecting central bay with a porch flanked by paired lancets, and a vestry to the east with a pointed-arched doorway. There is a lower one-bay annexe to the west that has paired lancets on the sides and a group of three stepped lancets on the west side.

Inside, the church is noted for its open timber roof, nave arcade, and original fittings. It was built for St Lawrence's Hospital at a cost of £1,515, following the hospital's mid-19th century expansion.
