Description
The Church of St Aidan is a parish church built in 1818 by H.H. Seward for the Commissioners of Greenwich Hospital. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a chamfered plinth and a graduated Lakeland slate roof. The church includes a castellated west tower with angle buttresses, a continuous nave and chancel, and a north vestry.
The west tower has a round-headed doorway on the south side, accessed by four steps. Above the doorway is a small round-headed window, and there is a large round-headed bell opening with Y-tracery. All openings are framed with broad chamfered surrounds.
The church has three bays with round-arched windows that also feature Y-tracery. It has a concave cornice and a three-light east window with intersecting glazing bars, along with a round window in the gable. The gabled roof has a blocking course over the gables, and the apex of the east gable is topped with a large square block that contains a round-headed niche.
Inside, the church has a simple yet pleasing interior with a panelled dado and a flat ceiling.
