Church Of Saint Hilda

The Church of Saint Hilda is a church built in 1868 by T.H. and F. Healey, which incorporates features from a 12th to 14th-century church that previously stood on the same site. It is constructed from hammer-dressed limestone with ashlar dressings and has a Welsh slate roof, showcasing Victorian Gothic style. The building features a west tower, a four-bay nave with a north aisle and a south porch, and a two-bay chancel.

The tower has a plinth and a two-light, trefoil-headed window on the west side, along with twin round-headed belfry windows on each face. It is topped with an embattled parapet and pinnacles. The north aisle includes a re-sited 12th-century round-arched doorway with two orders, one of which has beakheads. The hoodmould above this doorway has crude carvings, some depicting signs of the zodiac. The south porch features a 12th-century round-arched door with two roll-moulded orders supported by shafts with foliate capitals. The hoodmould here is decorated with foliate designs and headstops.

The nave and chancel windows are designed in early English and Geometric styles, with the east end showcasing a three-light window in Geometric style and a two-light, trefoil-headed window in the north aisle. Inside, there is a 12th-century circular font with fluting above a central band, resting on a chamfered base. The tower houses an early 14th-century stone effigy of a bearded man, with a woman looking over his left shoulder, and a defaced inscription reading "Willelmus de .'......." on the right edge of the monument. Additionally, there is a 14th-century incised tomb slab featuring a cross and chalice in the north aisle.
