Summary Description

A small Edwardian neo-Jacobean church of brick and timber framing, located within a grid of modest contemporary housing in a north-eastern residential suburb of Liverpool, near the ancient township of Walton. The architect was Frank Rimmington, as is recorded on a foundation stone in the baptistery, dedicated by Rev Canon Hobson, 22nd May 1909. The only easily visible facade is the west, where a baptistery with a lean-to roof projects between flanking porches with separate timber gables, plain doors. Above the baptistery is a 5-light strip window. The building is long and low with a fleche at the west end with a spirelet giving a little vertical emphasis. The fenestration consists of plain timber-framed rectangular 2-light windows with transoms to each bay, and similar dormers to the two west nave bays admitting more light to the interior. There is a short pointed 5-light window to the east end, again with a transom.
