Stunning. William Temple, Wythenshawe. GII. 1965. George Pace - considered the most influential post-war ecclesiastical architect in the UK. Designed to be modern in concept with value placed on acoustics. As with all Pace churches no plaques fixed to the walls. | Buttress Architects
St. Peter’s, Chester. G1. 14 Century+. Standing by High Cross partially on site of the Roman Principia. It was commonplace for the Anglo-Saxons to include Roman fabric when ‘robbing out’ to build new churches and it’s believed foundations date from this period | Buttress Architects
Our Lady & All Saints, Parbold | GII. 1884 by E. Kirby. Built on land donated by the Ainscough family & completed at a final cost of £12,000. The high altar is especially impressive featuring large statues of angels bearing symbols of the Instruments of Passion | Buttress Architects
