Holy Trinity Church, Hurdsfield, Gothic Revival church in Hurdsfield, Macclesfield, England
Holy Trinity Church is a Gothic Revival building with corner buttresses rising into pinnacles, comprising a four-bay nave, shallow chancel, and integrated west tower constructed in stone with slate roof. The church serves as an active place of worship with community facilities and remains easily accessible from local roads.
The foundation stone was laid in May 1838 and the church was consecrated in October 1839, initially serving as a chapel of ease to St Peter in Prestbury. It emerged during a period of church expansion in the 1800s when new congregations were established in growing towns.
The gallery space, originally linked to Trinity Square School, now serves as a gathering place with kitchen and meeting areas for community events and worship.
The church is located on Hurdsfield Road and is easily reached via main roads through Macclesfield. Visitors should check ahead since the building remains an active place of worship with scheduled services.
The churchyard contains war graves of three soldiers from both World Wars, serving as a quiet memorial to those conflicts. The organ inside replaced the original Samuel Renn instrument that once stood in the building.
