Description
The Church of St Mary is a parish church built in 1859, designed by F H Pownall in a vigorous Gothic style. It features rock-faced stone and a stone slate roof. The church has a five-bay nave with aisles, a lower two-bay chancel, a west tower, and a south porch. The architectural details are primarily Geometrical, including an east window with five lights, a west window with four lights, and cinquefoil windows in the clerestorey. The aisles have paired and triple cusped lights, while the tower includes two-light cusped bell-openings. The tower itself consists of four stages, with a trefoil-headed west doorway, a diagonal buttress on the northwest corner, and angle buttresses on the southwest that support a square turret. This turret is splayed back to an octagon above and culminates in a pyramidal stone roof.
Inside, the nave features a roof with arch-braced collars, while the chancel has a wagon roof. There are arcades on columns and a moulded chancel arch. Most fittings are contemporary, except for a plain Norman font. The east window displays a Tree of Jesse by Clayton and Bell, and the west window features a notable Te Deum dating from around 1900.
