Description
This Victorian church is a small stone structure with a squat tower which has a copper dome on top. The bay windows are capped by crenellations, a feature repeated n some of the lower sections of stonework. On the south elevation two of the gables are connected by bridging arches. The large pointed arch window above the entrance has elaborate tracery which forms floral patterns towards the top of the window. LOCAL LIST
