St George's Church, Tyldesley, Gothic Revival church in Tyldesley, England.
St George's Church features a 150-foot tower containing eight bells and holds a wooden altar made from American walnut with detailed carvings throughout.
The foundation stone was placed on St George's Day in 1822, though construction delays and plan modifications led to completion and consecration in 1825.
The church maintains connection with the community through regular worship services, social gatherings, and participation in the United Benefice of Astley, Tyldesley, and Mosley Common.
Visitors can attend Sunday services at 10 AM and participate in Friday social meetings from 10 AM to noon, which include refreshments and group activities.
The churchyard contains memorials for victims of the Yew Tree Colliery disaster, connecting the religious space to local mining heritage.
