St Michael's Church, North Rode, Grade II listed church in North Rode, England
St Michael's Church is a mid-19th century church building with a stone exterior and tiled roof situated in North Rode. The structure comprises a four-bay nave, south porch, and a west tower with angle buttresses for structural support.
The church was constructed between 1845 and 1846 by architects Charles and James Trubshaw for the Daintry family. It was designed in the Romanesque Revival style, reflecting architectural trends of the period.
The interior displays encaustic tile flooring and brass chandeliers alongside family memorials that reflect the community's history and faith over time. These elements show how the space held meaning for those who gathered there.
Access to the church is on foot via the south porch entrance at ground level. It is helpful to check local visiting times in advance, as opening hours may vary depending on services and events.
A distinctive architectural feature is the north stair turret of the tower, which rises above the main tower height and displays round-headed casement windows in Early English style. This detail sets it apart from more conventional church designs of its era.
