Description

The Church of St. Thomas is a church tower built between 1842 and 1843 by John Hicks. It is constructed of rubble with stone dressings and features a square plan in the neo-Romanesque style. The three-stage tower has a west door with paired jamb-shafts and scalloped capitals, a two-light window above it, a hood mould with wolf-head stops, and a relieving arch. The second stage contains a single light, while the third stage has paired windows with bell louvres on each side. The tower is topped with a gabled parapet and coping adorned with a Lombard frieze featuring animal masks as corbels, and there is a cross slit in each gable along with a cockerel weathervane. Additional details include a plinth, weathered clasping buttresses, and string courses.

On the east elevation, there is a blocked door and a large upper window, both of which are round-headed with relieving arches. The roof line of the former nave is visible, and part of the wall of the nave remains, showing the jamb shafts of a window, a mask stop to the hood mould, and a kneeler carved as a grotesque animal to the north. The outlines of the nave, transepts, and chancel can be seen on the ground.
