Church of St Paul

The Church of St Paul is a parish church rebuilt in 1857 on the site of an earlier church by Miles Thompson of Kendal. A vestry was added to the north side in 1866 and rebuilt in 1872 when the chancel was extended by William White of London. The church features pebble-dashed walls with dressed stone details, set on a chamfered plinth, and has a chamfered eaves band supported by corbels. It is adorned with stepped buttressing and has graduated slate roofs with terra-cotta ridge tiles, stone copings, and kneelers topped with apex crosses. The structure includes a 4-bay nave with a west tower, a 3-bay chancel, and an adjoining vestry. The north porch has a plank door with a pointed head, and the windows also feature pointed heads. The west tower is three stages high and has a taller octagonal stair turret with external access at the junction with the nave on the north side; both tower and nave are embattled.

Inside, the church has an aisleless nave with double hammer-beam roof trusses and pointed arches leading to the tower and chancel. There is a hammer-beam roof over the altar and a painted reredos. The choir pews are decorated with Gothick carving, and Minton tiles are used throughout the church. An octagonal wooden pulpit features arcaded, openwork sides, and the stone font is supported by four marble shafts, with a circular bowl that has evangelist symbols carved on the panels at the cardinal points. The wrought-iron gates in the tower arch display scrollwork decoration. The church also contains notable 19th-century glass, including four panels by Morris & Co.
