Description
The Church of Holy Trinity is a church built between 1843 and 1853 by G. Webster. It is constructed of dressed stone with a rock-faced stone base, ashlar dressings, and a slate roof. The church features a nave with a north vestry, an east apse, and a west tower topped with a spire. The five-bay nave includes weathered buttresses and a corbel table, along with 2-light traceried windows and a sill course. The gabled south porch has clasping buttresses and a pointed entrance with a niche above it. The north vestry is similar in style and has a chimney designed as an open pinnacle at the gable end. The canted apse has a battered base, nook shafts, and a Lombard frieze, with three traceried lights. The tower is supported by angle buttresses and has a 2-light west window. The lower part of the spire is splayed and features 2-light windows, while the upper part slopes at a shallower angle and includes lucarnes.
Inside, there is a chancel arch with responds, and the apse contains nook shafts and a ribbed ceiling. The apse windows feature good 20th-century stained glass by Wilhelmina Geddes from 1955, while other windows include 19th-century glass, some by Shriggley and Hunt. The church has an octagonal stone font, original pews—some with poppy heads—and a pulpit with arcading on the sides, along with an arcaded chancel rail. The church stands as a prominent landmark on the coast of Morecambe Bay.
