Description
The Congregational Church on Fisherton Street, built in 1879 by Tarring and Wilkinson, features an asymmetrical design inspired by the style of around 1300. Constructed from stone rubble with stone dressings, the church includes a tower with corner buttresses and pinnacles, topped by a stone spire with canopies in broaches. A short link connects the tower to the main body of the church, which has three pointed columned lights. The nave boasts a large gable end with a prominent south window consisting of five lights with quatrefoil tracery in the arch and colonettes dividing the sections. Below, there are three pointed lights with curved steps leading up to them. To the left, there is a lean-to with a gabled doorway. The main entrance is located at the foot of the tower, featuring a three-centred moulded arch set within an elaborately carved gable decorated with a diamond pattern and topped with a finial.
