Holy Trinity church, designed by R.C Hussey and first opened in 1867, is designated at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * It is a mid-Victorian church Gothic Revival built in a late 13th-century style church, designed two phases under two nationally-known church architects, R C Hussey and Joseph Clarke.
MATERIALS: The church is built of Kentish ragstone with limestone dressings and is roofed with slate.
PLAN: The plan consists of a nave with flanking aisles under their own gables, a chancel, N transept, N and S porches and a S tower.
EXTERIOR: It is a Gothic Revival church built in the style of the late 13th century which was extremely popular for church-building at the time it was erected. The defining features are the Geometrical style windows used extensively throughout the church. All the parts of the building are separately articulated as current ecclesiological taste dictated. The tower is very plain below and has paired, shafted lancets for belfry windows. The design of the tower and its parapet is such that a spire may have been intended to finish it off.
