Description
The Church of St George, located on Church Street, was built between 1898 and 1900 to replace N Dyer's chapel from 1794. Designed by M H Medland, it is constructed in a Gothic style. The church features an aisled nave, a north porch, and the base of a south tower that was never completed and has since become a porch. In 1938, a chancel and vestries were added, also in Gothic style. The building is made of rough-faced rubble with a Cotswold stone roof. It has octagonal buttresses at the four corners of the nave, with spirelets at the west end. The clerestory includes paired cusped lights, while the aisles have triplets of cusped lights. A tall five-light lancet window is situated at the west end, and the east window, designed in the Perpendicular style, features a cross in its tracery. The porch has corner buttresses and a hipped roof, with a pointed entrance consisting of three orders. Inside, there is a five-bay pointed arcade, and the principal rafters of the roof rest on stone corbels. The church is a prominent feature along the main road.
