In addition to visiting the Mausoleum and hearing about its history the adjacent Grade I Listed, St Matthew's Church will also be open to visitors. It is noted for its medieval stained glass windows, encaustic floor tiles and memorial brasses.

The Grade II* mausoleum, designed by G. F. Bodley, was built in 1897, in memory of Sir Hugh Alleyne Sacheverell-Bateman, by his wife Anna. It is built in red sandstone in a Perpendicular Gothic revival style. It has a marble sarcophagus which stands in the centre of the floor, with cut-glass in the lid. There is a fine painted roof, stained glass by Burlison & Grylls, and a framed memorial inscription, written on vellum.
