Description

The Church of St Edmund is a church built in 1846 by Benjamin Ferrey. It is constructed from coursed and squared Doulting rubble and features tile roofs with copings and cruciform finials. The church has a buttressed nave and chancel, each with two bays, a south porch, and a north vestry, all designed in the Decorated style. The nave has openings with two lights, each featuring tracery in slightly different styles. The chancel includes two-light windows, a lancet, and a three-light east window with reticulated tracery.

Inside, the church has a plain interior with tile floors. The nave is topped with a hammerbeam roof that springs from foliated corbels. The inner arches of the windows have foiled heads. There is an octagonal font with an ogee-headed niche on each face, along with a wooden cover featuring medieval-style ironwork, and a stone pulpit with crocketed niches. The chancel arch consists of two orders, and the chancel has an arch-braced roof that springs from foliated shafts. The reredos features seven carved stone panels and there are two Jacobean choir readers. All stained glass is designed in the 13th-century style.
