St George's Church, Heaviley, Anglican church in Heaviley, Stockport, England.
The red sandstone structure features a 72-meter spire, Gothic Revival elements, and can accommodate over 1,000 worshippers with a choir space for 70 singers.
Local brewer George Fearn provided funds for the construction of the church, vicarage, and schools, with the foundation stone placed in 1893 and consecration in 1897.
The interior contains Derbyshire alabaster work, oak fittings, and stained glass windows depicting the four rivers of Paradise in the West Window section.
