Description

The Church of St Mary the Virgin is a church built in 1843, constructed from coursed squared stone and ashlar, topped with a graduated slate roof. It features a west tower and a nave. The three-stage west tower has diagonal buttresses on the west side that rise to the bell stage. The west side includes three steps leading to a double board door set in a pointed arch stone surround with a hoodmould. Both the south and north sides of the tower have lancet windows with hoodmoulds, and a similar arrangement is found above on the west side. The tower is adorned with clock faces on three sides at the top of the second stage, a chamfered band, and belfry windows with two lights featuring flat-faced Y-tracery and hoodmoulds. The tower is topped with an embattled parapet and plain pinnacles at each corner.

The nave consists of three bays, with offset angle buttresses at each end that have pinnacles above. The central bay is flanked by smaller offset buttresses. All windows in the nave are lancets with hoodmoulds, and the structure has stone coping with a gable cross. The east window is similar to the others but has three lights. The interior of the church is very simple.
