Church of St Gregory the Great

The Church of St Gregory the Great is a parish church that dates from the 13th century and the 19th century. The nave was built in 1860 by John Dobson, and the tower was added later in the 19th century. The church is constructed from roughly-dressed stone with ashlar quoins and dressings, and it has a Welsh slate roof. The tower is made of whinstone.

The church features a north-west tower, a south porch, a nave, a north aisle, a south transept, and a chancel. The tower is designed in the Perpendicular style and has a three-light west window and two-light bell openings. It is topped with a stepped, castellated parapet that has obelisks at the corners.

The nave has four bays and is adorned with lancet windows. The south porch features a shouldered lintel in the first bay. The transept, located in the fourth bay, is lower and constructed with much older masonry, and it includes a Victorian three-light Geometric window. The chancel is very low with two bays and has a priest's door with a flat lintel and a chamfered surround. To the right, there is a square south window, also with a chamfered surround, and a three-light east window featuring 19th-century stepped lancets.

Inside, the nave and north aisle are entirely the work of Dobson, featuring a four-bay arcade with octagonal piers and broad chamfered arches. The chancel arch, likely from the 13th century, is a very narrow, low, depressed pointed arch that rises from plain chamfered imposts. The chancel is vaulted with a very low pointed tunnel vault that rises from side walls only three feet high. The priest's door and south window are deeply set into the vault. The south transept has a similar vault that rises straight from the floor.

To the left of the chancel arch, there is a 12th-century carving of the Adoration of the Magi. In the transept, there is a monument to Andrew Burrell and his wife from 1458, featuring a slab with incised figures and an inscription around the edges. The church contains two fonts: one at the entrance to the transept, which is an 18th-century marble font with a baluster stem, and another at the west end of the nave dated 1663, featuring an ornamental panelled octagonal shaft and bowl. Additionally, there is a monument to Rev. John Werge from 1732 in the chancel, designed as an aedicule with rusticated pilasters, profile heads in place of capitals, and a well-carved memento mori in the pediment.
