Summary Description

A large Edwardian Gothic town church of yellow stone with red “spiky” tracery, this combination an instant clue that one is looking at a Freeman church, as it was designed by Frank Richard Freeman of Bolton, son of Richard Knill Freeman. Built in 1909, it appears to have suffered from inadequate financing and was never completed as planned.
