Description
The Church of St Paulinus is an Anglican church built from rubble stone and topped with a slate roof. It features a west porch and a small west bellcote, both also covered in slate. The church consists of a single chamber with a large square-headed window at the east end and another in the center of the south wall. These windows are adorned with cut sandstone voussoirs and hoodmoulds. The glazing dates from 1900 and consists of three lights with two transoms and small panes, while the top lights include Gothic tracery. The bellcote has a single arched opening that houses a bell from 1897.
The porch has a pointed entry with stone voussoirs and a plastered interior that features an early 19th-century roof truss similar to those found in the church, along with two early 19th-century benches. Inside, the single chamber is whitewashed plaster with an early 19th-century five-bay roof supported by collar-trusses, apex struts, and bolted arched braces to the collars, with boarding behind the rafters. The church contains early 19th-century wooden altar rails with stick balusters, square posts, and a moulded rail. There is also an earlier 19th-century five-sided timber pulpit with Gothic panels and a moulded cornice above, along with similar panels on a slightly broader base and a matching reading desk. Late 19th-century open back benches are present, as well as a 20th-century enclosed vestry located at the southwest corner, which has a bier stored above.
