The present Roman Catholic church dates from 1847, though it was much smaller originally. The first building accommodated c150 people. It was built in the gothic style, with chancel, nave, single aisle, and stained glass windows. In 1864 the building was extended by 30 feet, an organ was installed, and a presbytery (house for the priests) was added. There have been various renovations since then. Grade II listed in March 1987.
