Church of St Etheldreda

The Church of St Etheldreda is a building of the 14th, 17th, and 19th centuries. It is constructed of random coursed lias and limestone with ashlar dressings, topped with a lead roof. The church consists of an aisled nave, a chancel, and a west tower. The chancel south elevation has two windows with two lights each, and the north elevation is similar. The east window has three lights with reticulated tracery, and is set beneath a shallow gabled roof with an ashlar parapet. The south aisle has two windows with three lights each, with similar east and west windows, and a porch with a four-centred arched doorway, likely dating to the 19th century; a ribbed and studded door is set within. The north aisle mirrors the south, with its own north porch, both featuring ashlar parapets. The windows have generally been restored in the 19th century. The nave clerestory features four single-light windows with flat arch heads, possibly resulting from a 17th-century restoration, all beneath a shallow-pitched roof with an ashlar parapet.

The west tower is of three stages, with angle buttresses for the first two stages. The bell chamber openings on each face of the third stage are double lancets from the 14th century. The broach spire, dated 1618, is constructed of limestone ashlar, displaying two stages of lucarnes on each façade.

Inside, the chancel has a ribbed and boarded ceiling with carved bosses. The chancel arch is hollow double-chamfered, with fleurons on the capitals. The four-bay nave arcade has double-chamfered arches supported on octagonal piers, with carved animal heads at the spanning of each arch. The north clerestory windows have quadripartite glazing bars. A 19th-century king-post roof retains earlier tie beams, along with carved bosses and corbels depicting the Seven Ages of Man.

Stained glass is present in the chancel windows, created by Morris and Burne-Jones. The south aisle east and south-east windows are by Morris and Co, while the north aisle east window is by Burlison and Grylls, dating to 1894. A reredos and panelling in the chancel, with Gothic motifs, were added in 1846. Pews from 1815 are present, including some box pews in the north aisle.
