 The church is 78 feet in length and 38 feet wide, with a seating capacity for 300. The most striking feature is the ceiling, constructed of oiled pine, showing the timbers. The pulpit, lectern, communion rail, altar and bishop's chair are of oak. The reredos was added in the 1920s as a memorial to those who gave their lives in the first World War. Originally, it was positioned just below the beamed ceiling. The angels holding censors were a gift from St. Philip's parish when it closed in the 1960's. The font, which was given by Mr. James Jackson in 1885, is the original limestone octagonal bowl and stem standing on a stepped octagonal base. The first stained glass window was that of the Good Shepherd, located to the left of the altar. It dates from the late 1880's. The bell hanging in the belfry was given by St. Thomas' parish after a new bell was procured for the new St. Thomas' Church in 1900. The Cross on top is the original Altar cross of St. Matthew's Church, destroyed by fire in 1969.
