Description
The Church of St Paul is an Anglican church built in 1843 by Richard Carver. It is constructed from coursed and squared rubble and features pilaster buttresses, a Lombard frieze, a slate roof, coped verges, and a gabled ashlar bellcote. The church has a nave, transepts, a chancel with a vestry, and is designed in a Neo-Norman style.
The nave consists of two bays and has tall, narrow semi-circular head windows with nook shafts and hood moulds that have foliate stops. There is a similar triple-light window at the west end. The transepts are designed in the same style and consist of a single bay each. The chancel features a large three-light east window that resembles the style of around 1200. The west doorway has a semi-circular head and three orders of shafts, while the vestry includes a well-modelled Neo-Norman doorway adorned with chevron ornament.
Inside, the church has a plastered interior beneath an arch-braced roof, with broad semi-circular head arches separating the transept and chancel. The mid to late 19th-century fittings include pews, a font, a pulpit, a reredos, altar rails, and stained glass.
