Church of St Gastyn

The Church of St Gastyn is a mid-19th century church built in the early Gothic Revival, specifically the Early English style. It is constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings, and has a roof of stone tiles laid in diminishing courses, topped with blue ridge tiles, apex crosses and stepped coping. The church is laid out around a west tower, nave, a south porch, a short chancel, a southeast organ chamber, and a northeast vestry.

The two-storey west tower features plain string courses at three levels and plain coping. A staircase tower is set to the northeast, with a gargoyle to the north. The ringing chamber has double pointed arched, louvred lights with pierced quatrefoil tracery, with a hood mould having scroll stops on three sides. Lancet windows are present in the tower chambers and staircase. The nave has a steep and deeply pitched roof, with moulded ends to the rafters, and a hollow chamfered eaves course. The nave windows are single lancets. The south porch has a similar pitched roof with prominent kneelers and a plain chamfered, pointed arched doorway. A southeast wing for the organ chamber mirrors the style of the priest's door and has two chamfered lights with armatures to the south. The chancel has similar lancet windows to the north and south, and an east window of three lancets in the Early English style. A narrow, trefoil-headed door with hood mould and a decoratively and asymmetrically stepped stack with quatrefoil decoration appears in the northwest wing.

Inside, the walls are white with exposed ashlar dressings and painted texts, inscriptions and stencilled decoration. The nave has five bays with arched-brace trusses and two tiers of windbraces. The flooring is of encaustic tiles, patterned in red, yellow and black. Painted inscriptions are located below the wallplate and over the chancel arch, and the commandments are painted on each side. A high, pointed tower arch is present, along with deep window splays. The octagonal font is heavily moulded with quatrefoils and an inscription, with a base of three colonettes, partly marble, and has a wooden, pyramidal cover suspended above. Delicate wrought iron candelabras are also present. The pointed chancel arch includes an elaborately carved wainscot screen, which appears to be mostly medieval. The elaborately decorated chancel includes a painted stencilled dado, E wall and arch mouldings, and a painted roof. A fine metal grille leads to the organ chamber, with painted pipes. The chancel and sanctuary have more decorative flooring. All windows contain stained glass by Clayton and Bell, mostly depicting figures set in grisaille.

The church stands within a walled, near-circular churchyard, together with a contemporary lychgate to the southwest, featuring Gothic Revival timberwork.
