Description

The Church of St Barnabas, formerly known as the Parish Church at Stock Gaylard, is a former parish church that was entirely rebuilt in 1884 by W.J. Fletcher. The original features date mostly from the 15th and 16th centuries. The church is constructed of coursed, squared rubble with ashlar dressings and has a stone slate, gable-ended roof with stone copings and a double bell-cot.

The layout includes a chancel, a south porch, and a north vestry. It is a small church designed in the 'perpendicular' style, with windows primarily consisting of two lights under square heads. The east window features two trefoiled lights with panelled tracery beneath a two-centred head and a returned label, which appears to follow the original design as seen in an engraving by Hutchins. The vestry contains trefoiled windows, while the south porch has an archway with a chamfered two-centred head. The interior includes barrel-vaulted roofs, a stone slab altar that may be a reused table-tomb top on a reset table tomb, and an octagonal 15th-century stone font with quatrefoil panels. There is some early glass present, and a recumbent 13th-century effigy of a knight, identified as Sir Ingelramus de Walys, is set in a cusped arched niche in the south wall of the nave. The church also features 18th and 19th-century wall tablets.
