Church of St Barnabas

The Church of St Barnabas is a parish church built in 1879, located on Jasmine Lane in Claverham. It is constructed from snecked limestone rubble with limestone dressings and features a plain tiled roof with raised coped verges, kneelers, and cross finials. The church is designed in an early English style, with a west porch and a nave that has an apsidal east end. The gabled porch includes a pointed arched opening with convex mouldings and plain double doors. On either side of the porch are small vestries with pitched roofs and a single trefoil-headed light. Above the porch, the gable end of the nave features a triple lancet window with trefoil heads, the central one being taller. The nave has two sets of triple lancets on the north and south sides, while the apse has three trefoil-headed lancets along with a cill string, plinth, and a bellcote.

Inside, the nave boasts an attractive roof made of common rafters with wall-posts that extend lower to the sides of the windows, scissors trusses, and arched braces in the apse that rise to a central boss with a scissors truss above. The apse also features cusped panelling below the windows, which have deep splayed reveals and pointed segmental rere-arches. The inner door to the nave is pointed arched and has two chamfered orders with plain double doors. The fittings include plain benches.
