Description
The Church of St Mary is a Grade II listed building that features a tower with a pointed vault at the first floor level, which opens into the nave. The tower has a domed and tiled roof, topped with a corbelled and crenellated parapet. There is a stair turret at the southwest corner, which slightly projects on each face. The entrance to the stairs from within the tower is approximately 1.4 meters below the current floor level. The west window in the tower at ground level is of late medieval design, featuring an irregular hood mould and cinquefoil light heads, although it has been much restored. Beneath this window, there is a blocked west door opening, and the belfry has openings with stone louvres.
The church was rebuilt in the Early English and Decorated styles. The external masonry is primarily in uncoursed ashlar, while the north elevation uses a rougher technique to blend with the retained medieval masonry in part of the north nave wall. The roof is covered with red tiles, some of which have been recently relaid.
Inside the nave, there are memorials to the Mirehouse family. Additionally, some older memorials from other families were discovered in fragments, repaired, and installed in the north transept after the rebuilding. The font is of the Norman cushion type and has been scraped.
