Church of St Nicholas

The Church of St Nicholas is a redundant parish church that dates from the 15th century, with alterations in the 18th century and restoration in 1857 by T.H. Wyatt. The nave is constructed of sarsen stone with limestone dressings and features a stone and concrete tiled roof. The chancel is made of brick on sarsen footings, topped with a stone tiled roof. The church includes a nave with a south bell-tower porch and a chancel. The windows are 2-light with slightly cusped square heads, and there is a 3-light west window. The chancel has lancet windows with stone dressings, possibly reset, and a quatrefoil in the east gable. The tower porch, added in the 19th century, has angle buttresses, 2-light bell openings, a parapet, and a pyramidal tiled roof. The south door is arched with a heavy hoodmould.

Inside, the nave features an open roof of 3½ bays, with subsidiary trusses dividing each bay. The walls are rendered in the 19th century and whitewashed. There is a trefoiled piscina and a wide chancel arch leading to the chancel, which has a trussed rafter roof and 19th-century tile pavings. Notable fittings include a 13th-century octagonal font with trefoiled panels, a 19th-century oak pulpit on a stone base, and a good 15th-century chancel screen with narrow traceried panels and a carved frieze and crestings, but no door. The church also contains a 19th-century altar rail and mid-19th-century pews. Monuments in the nave include four wall tablets, one of limestone from 1776 dedicated to Henry Webb, a white marble tablet on grey for Elizabeth Nalder who died in 1835, another for John Nalder who died in 1794, and a tablet from 1919.
