Christ Church, Appleton-le-Moors

[1][2] The church is built in limestone with slate roofs, and some of its interior details are in Rosedale ironstone.

The steeple has a tower with two-light bell openings, shafts and lucarnes, and a pyramidal spire.

At the west end, the narthex projects between buttresses, and the entrance arch has three orders, shafts and foliate capitals.

Above it, in the gable, is a large rose window, with a botanical theme, filled with stained glass by Clayton and Bell which depicts Christian virtues.

Inside, there is a hammerbeam roof, and pink sgraffito decoration in a Classical style,[2][3] by Clayton & Bell, who also designed the stained glass.
