St Marie's Church, Widnes, Gothic Revival church in Widnes, England
St Marie's Church features red brick walls with sandstone details, blue brick banding, and a Welsh slate roof topped by a bellcote with cross finial.
The church construction began in 1862 to serve Irish immigrants working in chemical factories, with architect E.W. Pugin completing the structure in 1865.
The St Marie's Heritage Group delivers events inside the building, including historical presentations, reminiscence gatherings, and an annual Christmas Carol Concert.
Located on Lugsdale Road, the former church building now functions as premises for Halton and St Helens Voluntary Action following a Heritage Lottery Fund grant.
The north side doorway displays a mosaic with the inscription 'I am the Immaculate Conception' under an arched gable between stepped buttresses.
