Summary Description

Despite planning beginning before the outbreak of the Second World War the church was not built until 1956 to designs by local architect Bernard Miller. St Aidan’s is a large red brick building on a central island site. The nave has seven bays and is wide and tall with a copper roof curving in a barrel-vault. The aisles are shallow and almost equal in height with continuous clerestorey style windows with the copper roof undulating over each one. Below this the walls are totally blind.
