Holy Trinity church building

Holy Trinity Church was constructed in 1876/77 and designed by Charles Hodgson Fowler.  Stylistically the building is in a nineteenth century re-interpretation of the medieval Early English style with pointed lancet windows. Several of the windows are filled with stained glass, one notably  by Moore in the centre bay of the north wall.  At the west end of the church, the square  bellcote  with a steep spiralet (mini spire) can be seen from all around the village. 

Inside the church there is  a carved timber war memorial screen. The pipe organ was built by Vincent and Co of Sunderland. Two storey social rooms were added in the year 2000. Downstairs there is a lobby, a meeting room, a kitchen and an accessible WC. Upstairs there is an office, a prayer room and a store.  There is a nave platform at the front of the church and both the nave and chancel are carpeted throughout. Soft furnished chairs provide moveable seating which creates options for gatherings and special services.

The church stands in a large closed grave-yard (no longer used for new burials) with pedestrian access to front and rear. There is disabled access by means of a ramp to the porch.
