Church of St Mary

The Church of St Mary is a Grade II listed building constructed from rubble stone with slate roofs, featuring coped gables and cross finials. It consists of a west tower, nave, and chancel. The west tower is made of squared conglomerate stones laid in courses, with a battered plinth and a plain upper section that incorporates more mixed stone. It may have been shortened, and it includes a northeast stair turret. The tower has corbelled embattled parapets, with the stair tower parapet inscribed with 'JP WT 1779'. The north bell opening is square, featuring stone voussoirs and timber louvres, likely from the 18th century, while there are small bell openings on the west and south sides. The west door has a tall pointed arch, possibly from the 19th century, which breaks into the base of a blocked pointed window, both adorned with stone voussoirs. The door is fitted with double early 20th-century board doors and an overlight with Y-tracery.

The nave and chancel display brick courses under the eaves. The nave features 19th or early 20th-century windows with three stepped lights, with two on each side of the nave. The north wall shows traces of two blocked windows, while the south wall is rendered. The chancel has a two-light window on the north side, set to the right, with cusping and stone voussoirs above, a single 19th-century cusped light on the south side, and a small three-light window at the east end with stepped lancets and grey stone voussoirs. A square medieval font on a round shaft is also present.

Inside, the church has mostly early 20th-century plastered walls and open roofs. The tower appears to have a stone pointed vault, which is plastered over, and there is a conglomerate stone doorway with a four-centred arch on the north side leading to the stone winding stairs. A stone bowl with four lugs on the floor may serve as a stoup. The west wall of the church appears thinner than the other tower walls. The nave features five arch-braced collar trusses on corbels, plastered walls, and a low plastered pointed chancel arch. The square medieval font dates from the 12th or 13th century. The chancel has a five-bay scissor-truss roof, with later 20th-century fittings in pale oak, including stalls, a reading desk, kneelers, rails, and panelling. The east window, created in 1965 by Celtic Studios, depicts the Supper at Emmaus. On the north wall of the nave, there is a plain plaque from 1827 commemorating Admiral Thomas Tucker, who died in 1766.
