Description
The Church of St Michael and All Angels is a parish church built in 1813 by Henry Rhodes, with restoration and remodeling completed in 1886-1887. It is constructed from squared blocks of sarsen or greyweather stone, likely sourced from near High Wycombe, with the joints filled with pieces of flint. The church features slate roofs and is designed in a simple lancet style. It has a west tower with diagonal buttresses, a small stair turret on the south side, a door, and a two-light window on the west side, along with a parapet that has broken coping. The structure includes a nave and aisles, a south porch, and a short chancel.
Inside, the church has a four-bay nave with pointed arches that feature dogtooth ornamentation on high cylindrical piers, which have leaf ornamentation on their capitals and square bases. The chancel arch is supported by carved corbel heads and has hoodmoulds with circular label stops. The roof is adorned with curved braces and pendants, and the spandrels are cusped and supported by angel head corbels. The chancel roof is coffered and painted, featuring an enriched cornice and three bosses. There are small pointed arched niches on either side of the triplet lancet east window. A brass from the former church has been reset on the left-hand side of the chancel. An organ is located in a small west gallery above a three-arched wooden screen. Additionally, there is a 19th-century marble font with a square fluted bowl on a spiral stem and a carved base.
