Church Of St Paul

The Church of St Paul is a church built in 1874, financed and possibly designed by C A W Troyte at a cost of £1,250. It is constructed from rubble volcanic trap and features slate roofs that are banded in two colors. The church is designed in the Decorated style and consists of two cells: a nave and a chancel, along with a south porch, a north-east vestry, and a west bellcote.

The exterior includes windows that are all under hood moulds with floriated terminals. The west front features moulded kneelers and buttresses that are flush with the face, a four-light reticulated window, and a bellcote with two offsets and a single, chamfered bell opening. A small trefoil is set between the window and the bellcote. The south front has a porch at the extreme west end with an entrance arch under a hood mould and terminals, along with semi-detached shafts with bell capitals. There are two two-light windows in the nave with spiky decorated tracery, and the east end of the nave is marked by a buttress with two offsets beneath a kneeled and coped gable. The chancel is set well back and has two one-light trefoil-headed windows, along with a three-light Decorated window at the east end. The north-east vestry has an east door and an end stack to the north with paired, octagonal, crenellated caps. There are three two-light Decorated windows on the north side of the nave.

Inside, the nave has three main bays, each subdivided, with principals that have arch braces and collars resting on moulded stone corbels. The chancel roof features canted common rafters. The chancel arch is composed of two orders, with foliated corbels, while the responds are plain. All windows have deep reveals. The reredos consists of an arcade with three, five, and three stone and polished limestone trefoil-headed arches. The font is octagonal and made of stone, and the pulpit is polygonal, approached from behind.
