Holy Trinity Church, Bolton-le-Sands

The nave was built in 1813. and in 1851 added a pulpit and a reading desk. The church was restored in 1863–64 by E. G. Paley (by this time Sharpe had retired from the practice). In 1881 the practice, now Paley and Austin, carried out further alterations, which included widening the north aisle, adding a vestry, a porch, a pulpit, and a font, lowering the floor, removing the gallery, opening the tower arch, replacing windows, reseating the church to accommodate 450 people, and retiling and refitting the chancel.

The arcade is in five bays running between the nave and chancel, and the north aisle. It is supported by octagonal piers, other than the second pier from the east, which is rectangular. The nave has a hammerbeam roof, and the chancel roof is scissor-braced. Between the chancel and the aisle is a sandstone memorial to the memory of a man who died in 1642 with the inscription "It is supposed that he lived above 100 yeares". Elsewhere there are 19th-century monuments in Classical style, and brasses dated 1692 and 1872. The reredos is in alabaster and dates from 1897. The stained glass in the west window dates from 1891. It depicts archangels, was designed by Carl Almquist, and made by Shrigley…
