Hexagonal stone font with open tracery panels and coved foot is integral to south east arcade arch. Brass eagle lectern. Lady chapel has window installed in 1976. Nave has impressive arch-braced roof with finely moulded collars. Arcades have quatrefoil piers with moulded capitals from which rise tall double-chamfered arches. Octagonal stone font with bowl supported on a clustered stem and an oak strapwork cover. This is a fine-quality church by an architect who was well-known not only throughout the North of england and the Midlands but also elswhere. It uses the site well with a robust aisle wall fronting directly onto the adjacent lane and has an effective outline to this north front with a tall transept and elegant spirelet. The south side is treated differently with a Lady chapel and chancel windows above. This differing treatment makes for an effective chancel inside it also retains fine furnishings and stained glass. The nave is tall and impressive with large clerestory windows above moulded arcades. The whole of the interior is of stone it has fine roofs. Although the west front of 1931 is simpler than originally intended it is perhaps more effective with a large window over the long flight of steps up to the west door with prominent buttresses either side. This church also forms part of a significant group of historic buildings to either side and opposite. (LB Online)
