St Stephen's Church features a five-bay nave with clerestory, north and south aisles, and a northwest steeple topped with a frieze and embattled parapet.

The church, designed by architect Cornelius Sherlock, was built between 1872 and 1874, and received consecration from the bishop of Chester in February 1874.

The west window contains stained glass created in 1883 by Edward Burne-Jones and colored by William Morris, while Frederick Preedy designed the east window.

The church holds Holy Communion services on the first and third Sundays of each month, with additional weekly activities including craft groups and fellowship meetings.

The building incorporates rock-faced sandstone construction with ashlar dressings, featuring paired lancet windows and gargoyles adorning the tower parapet.
