Description
The Church of St. Saviour, built in 1873 by J. P. Seddon, is a church located in Lower Redbrook. It is constructed from squared rock face rubble stone with limestone dressings and features a tiled roof with coped gables and cross finials. The church has a four-bay nave, a gabled south porch, and north and south transepts. The south transept includes an inset octagonal four-stage tower, which has pointed belfry windows on each face and a spire with lucarnes above. The chancel consists of two bays and is highlighted by a three-light trefoil-head window with a rose window above it, along with large shallow pointed arches on each side that are now partially blocked. The west end of the church is supported by low angle buttresses and features two paired lancet windows with a large separate rose window above. The nave has simple paired lancets, and to the east of the south porch, there are coupled windows with vestigial rerearches. The roof is boarded and has cusped trusses that form large trefoils, supported on corbels. At the time of the survey in June 1984, the church was undergoing restoration, and the interior was very disorderly, although some original pews may still remain.
