Church Of St Michael

The Church of St Michael is a parish church that likely originated in the 13th century, with the nave partly dating from the 14th century, the south tower partly from the 15th century, the north aisle from the 16th century, and the chancel, south porch, and general restoration occurring in the first half of the 19th century, with further restoration in the later 19th century. The building is constructed of coursed rubble and ashlar, featuring ashlar dressings. The nave has a stone slated, gable-ended roof, while the chancel also has a slate, gable-ended roof with stone copings.

The windows are mainly early 19th century, consisting of three-light windows under two and four-centred arches with 'Y-tracery' and returned labels. The east chancel window has three lights under a four-centred head with perpendicular tracery, and the north chancel window features 19th century two-light plate tracery under a two-centred head. The south chancel windows are 19th century lancets, and there is a 13th century, likely reset, lancet in the south wall of the nave.

The south tower has two stages and is unbuttressed, with crocketted finials. It includes a plain south window under a two-centred head, with a plain rectangular window above, and the bell stage has two-centred, perpendicular windows with two lights. The tower features parapet strings with gargoyles. The south porch is rebuilt and has a chamfered, two-centred arch, while the south door has a moulded four-centred arch with a returned label.

Internally, there is a two-centred chancel arch with two chamfered orders and three-sided responds with capitals. The nave arcade has four bays with two-centred moulded arches on piers with attached shafts, separated by hollow chamfers. There is a blocked tower arch, and the chancel roof features intersecting moulded beams and wall-plates, with the bays divided into coffers with fretted panels. The nave has a 19th century tie-beam roof, while the aisle has a flat plaster roof. The church also contains a 15th century octagonal stone font with panelled sides on a panelled octagonal plinth, 18th century communion rails, a c.1800 six-panel south door, 19th century glass, a likely 20th century stone pulpit, and 18th century floor slabs, with other fittings primarily from the 19th century.
