Summary Description

The characteristic blunt, geometrical tower of this church is an immediately recognisable feature of this church, and on closer inspection it may be seen that the whole church shares its blunt, French-inspired geometrical details. The west end, for example, is broad, with a sheer unbuttressed wall, battered between the ground and the window sills, pierced only by three stark lancets with a big wheel window with stone plate tracery with eight large and eight small circular lights round the central eight-lobed motif. The only decoration is the necessary variation in the bond of brickwork to accommodate these features and two bands of stone across the gable.
