The Orton Trust Workshop

The Orton Trust Workshop is a church building that has been converted into a stonemasonry centre. It dates from the 13th and 14th centuries, with earlier origins, and underwent restoration between 1868 and 1887, as well as in 1906. The structure is made of coursed rubblestone with some dressed stone and features a stone slate roof with parapeted gables.

The building consists of a choir, nave, south aisle, and a west tower. The choir includes a two-light east window with Y tracery and a hood mould with block stops. The north wall is blank, while the south wall has a two-light window with perpendicular tracery and a flat-arched head, also with a hood mould. The north wall of the nave features two two-light windows with Y tracery and hood moulds that have carved stops. The south aisle has similar windows, along with a narrow south-east lancet. The clerestory contains two two-light windows with perpendicular tracery and flat-arched heads, both with hood moulds.

The south porch has a chamfered arch that meets carved corbels, and within it is a many-moulded doorway with a hood mould featuring head stops. The 19th-century plank door is also noteworthy. The west tower, which is from the 13th and 14th centuries, has three stages; the first stage has small narrow lancets, the second stage is blank, and the bell chamber features four two-light openings with geometrical tracery and hood moulds that also have carved stops. The tower is topped with a string course, crenellated parapet, and four small pinnacles.

Inside, the building has been cleared of its original fittings for its current use, with some partition walls added. However, it retains a chancel arch with a round-arched head, a three-bay south arcade with double-chamfered arches on octagonal piers, and an unchamfered pointed nave arch. The font is decorated with four projecting human and animal heads, and there is stained glass in the east, north nave, and south choir windows.
