Description
The Church of St Edmund is a parish church that was rebuilt in the 14th century and extensively restored in 1854. It is constructed of coursed, squared rubble and features medieval pilaster buttresses at the western corners. The church has graduated slate roofs with stone copings, a bellcote at the west end, and an apex cross at the east end. The pointed west door is from the 19th century. The side windows are mullioned with two lights and have ogeed trefoil heads, while the pointed east window and the two easternmost windows are mainly original, with others dating from the 19th century. An additional north chapel was added in the early 16th century, featuring two mullioned windows with two and three segment-headed lights, as well as a reset 14th-century door. Inside, there is a tomb niche in the south wall of the chancel with a cusped cinquefoiled head, and a piscina in the south wall with an ogeed trefoil head. The north chapel contains a 12th-century pillar piscina with decorative corner shafts, and the chapel screen has a carved top rail from the 14th or 15th century.
