Holy Trinity Platt Church, Anglican church in Platt Fields Park, Manchester, England.
The Gothic Revival church features a tall octagonal spire with flying buttresses, three-stage tower, and intricate terracotta details throughout its structure.
Edmund Sharpe designed this Grade II* listed building in 1845, using terracotta as the main material, earning it the designation as his second 'pot church'.
Thomas Carrill Worsley commissioned the church to establish an Anglican presence, choosing the Holy Trinity dedication to counter the local Unitarian influence.
The church accommodates 700 people and includes a modern hall extension built in 1967 adjacent to its east wall for community activities.
The entire structure, including the interior arcade piers, utilizes terracotta crafted to resemble stone, marking an innovative approach to church construction.
