Gawsworth St James - barrel roof
The timber barrelled roof of the nave is said to be unique in Chester Diocese. This, and the beautifully designed door to the bell tower, with its timbers curved to fit the shape of the spiral staircase, make me wonder whether the master carpenter was trained as a cooper.
