Description

The Methodist Church, built in 1866, was designed by Herbert Isitt of Bradford. It features rock-faced stone and brick with ashlar dressings and slate roofs, characterized by raised and coped gables with kneelers and finials. The west gabled front includes a slightly projecting gabled porch with a pointed arched entrance, featuring two shouldered doorways with plank doors, flanked by a column and a quatrefoil above. On either side, there are single lancet windows, and above is a central three-light pointed arched window with geometric tracery, flanked by more single lancets. In the gable, there are three ring lancets. The facade is further enhanced by single octagonal turrets topped with spires, and curved single-storey wings that each have a four-arch blind arcade, topped by a parapet with smaller octagonal turrets beyond. The side and rear walls are constructed of brick with plain ashlar dressings. The nave features alternating two-light pointed arched windows and short lancets, leading to a cross wing that houses parish rooms and a meeting hall.

Inside, the church retains its original paneled wooden roof and a west gallery over the porch supported by two ornate columns. The short chancel contains an ornate organ case, while the eastern reading desk has been partly dismantled and moved. The nave still has most of its pews, and many of the windows feature late 19th-century stained glass.
