Christ Church

Christ Church is a church built in 1826 by Richard Carver. It features a rendered exterior with a slate roof and coped verges, including a stone bell-cote with a bell at the west end. The building has an oblong plan and small turrets at each corner, with flat roofs and parapets. There are weathered strings below each gable, which continue at eaves level on the north and south sides but are now obscured by 20th-century guttering. Additional weathered strings are present at the sill and plinth levels.

The church is designed in the Gothic Revival style, with a west front divided into three bays. The central bay has a broad three-light window with a four-centred head and intersecting tracery, flanked by lancet windows under stopped labels. The central entrance features a plank door with strap hinges, set within a moulded stone surround that also has a four-centred head. A half-octagonal ashlar porch with three door openings, each with a four-centred head, leads into the church, topped by a parapet with a coping that rises to a central pediment.

The return elevations consist of three bays with tall two-light segmental-headed windows featuring Y-tracery and stopped labels. The east elevation includes a shallow apse with a five-light window containing ten foiled sub-lights above. All window openings have leaded lights with simple stained glass.

Inside, the church has a simple galleried interior, with the gallery displaying the Hanoverian arms. There is a painted reredos featuring biblical quotations, an early 19th-century pulpit and altar table in a Gothic style, and a 19th-century wall monument by T. Tyley of Bristol. A painted board at the west end commemorates two local gifts of charity, and there are 17th-century coffin stools along with a 19th-century organ.
