Church Of The Epiphany

The Church of the Epiphany is a parish church built in 1866, constructed from sandstone ashlar with ashlar dressings and topped with graduated slate roofs. It features a nave and chancel, two transepts, and a circular tower at the west end. There is a north porch at the west end with modern external doors.

On the south side of the nave, there are three windows, each with two lancet lights and a roundel above, made of plain leaded glass. The north side of the nave has two windows: one with two lancet lights and a roundel above, and another with three lancet lights and a roundel above. The transept windows consist of three lancet lights with triple roundels set in a round-headed arch, all containing stained glass. The south side has a small rose window and a door in the sacristy. Plain buttresses are positioned between each window.

The chancel has two windows on the north side and one on the south, each with two lancet lights and a roundel above. The east window features four lancet lights with a triple roundel above, also with stained glass. The west end has two stained glass single light windows and a relatively simple rose window above. The circular tower is located at the south-west corner and has a spire supported on an arcade with paired windows alternating with blind panels in banded red and white brick, with plain stonework below.

Inside, the church has a cross ribbed timber roof and bare sandstone walls. The west end includes a wood panelled vestry, and there are wooden screens between the porch area and the main part of the nave, which are carved and glazed with leaded decorative lights. The fittings include wooden pews throughout, with one in the nave and two in the choir stalls decorated with carved roundels. The floors are laid with Minton tiles. All windows and arches in the transepts and chancel are pointed, featuring early English ('stiff-leaf') style capitals on the transept arches and carved angels below similar capitals on the chancel arch. A large pulpit made of pink and black marble sits on a sandstone base, adorned with blind arcading, and there is a font of the same material located in the south transept. The inner porch doors are wooden and fitted with large wrought iron hinges.
