Parish Church Of St Saviour

The Parish Church of St Saviour is a significant building, mainly from the 15th and 16th centuries, constructed of rubble with a predominantly rendered finish and slate roofs. It features a west tower, a three-bay nave, and a two-bay chancel, along with a north porch dated 1557. The tower leans considerably to the west and consists of two stages, supported by diagonal buttresses and topped with a quatrefoil pierced parapet. The heavily moulded west door is located beneath a panelled two-light perpendicular window, with similar windows on all sides of the second stage that include louvres. A plain polygonal stair turret at the southeast corner does not rise above the parapet.

The nave contains irregular 14th and 15th-century windows, a pointed south doorway, and buttresses with weathered offsets. The simple gabled north porch has a ball finial. The chancel, which is not rendered, features 16th-century two- and three-light square-headed windows, with a three-light perpendicular window at the east. There is a small 19th-century former organ chamber on the north side.

Inside, the church is plastered, and the roof has 17th-century closely spaced trusses with a ceiling at tie beam level, except in the pulpit bay, which retains the sawn-off ends of moulded beams from the rood loft. The moulded chancel arch and the base of a 16th-century stone screen are notable features. The altar rails are likely Laudian and possibly Jacobean. Flanking the chancel arch are a reading desk and a panelled octagonal pulpit, along with a wrought iron hourglass stand by the pulpit. Most of the nave contains early to mid-16th-century heavy oak pews, with the rear pew by the entrance featuring cresting and finials, as well as five 18th-century box pews.

The church also has a Norman tub font with a scraped 17th-century strapwork cover. The west window on the north side includes shutter rebates and a bolt socket. Commandment tables are now located at the west end, and there is a 17th-century door with a bar at the south. The royal arms from 1751 are displayed over the south door.
