Interior
Interior not seen at resurvey (November 2001), description taken from listing inspection (March 1999). Galleried interior, the galleries possibly of 1866, but later C19 pews, pulpit and organ-recess. Heavy painted timber gallery on 3 sides, with curved angles and long, horizontal panels, separated by small square panels, all heavily framed. Coved cornice beneath and five plain cast iron columns, with neck rings. Pitch-pine pews, a double centre block and single side blocks, with slatted backs and shaped bench-ends. Pews to outer bays angled towards pulpit, and two additional pews at right-angles, to left of pulpit. Gallery pews are raked, with long panels to backs and simple shaped bench ends. Ceiling has painted stucco cornice but is otherwise plain, centre rose removed. Pulpit end divided off by free-standing cast-iron railing to trilobe plan. Timber coping and rail, scrolled floral pattern to iron uprights and florid iron newels. Pitch-pine pulpit platform is large with plain steps up each side, projecting canted pulpit between open 3-bay sides, all with traceried Gothic detail. Pulpit has blank panels, and angle-shafts, under moulded top rail. Sides are curved in outer bay, with similar rail, and the whole is raised on a panelled base. Short pew behind pulpit. Behind is big opening for organ-recess, elliptical arched with Gothic traceried wooden rail across front, to match pulpit detail. Large pipe organ, the pipework in simple Gothic timber frame with machicolated upper rails and 4 uprights with finials. At rear, modern doors into narrow lobby with central, rectangular window, with marginal glazing bars. Two flights of stairs lead to original 4-panel doors to gallery. Blocked window to gallery right side, due to addition of chapel house. All arched windows are in square-headed openings internally.
