Church Of St Paul

The Church of St Paul is a parish church that was originally built as a chapel of ease between 1841 and 1842 by architects G.G. Scott and W.B. Moffat, with decoration and fittings added by Medley in 1846. The church features flint pebble walls with limestone ashlar dressings and has slated roofs with stone-coped gables and kneelers. It consists of a nave, chancel, and north and south transepts, topped by a bell turret with a bell on the west gable.

The nave includes three lancet windows on each side, while the west front has three stepped lancets and a doorway with a two-centred arch beneath it. Flanking the doorway are large limestone crosses set into the pebble walls. Each transept has two lancet windows with a smaller quatrefoil light above, and a limestone cross is positioned at the apex of the gable. The south transept also serves as an entrance porch and features a doorway with a two-centred arch.

The chancel has a stepped triple lancet window on the east side that matches the one at the west end, along with a single lancet window in both the north and south walls. The interior is noted for its good simple original design and includes interesting mid-20th century glass in the east window.
