St Philip's Church, Salford

St Philip's Church, Salford, Grade II* listed church building in Chapel Street, Salford, England.

St Philip's Church in Chapel Street is a place of worship featuring Greek Revival style with an ashlar stone exterior and rounded upper windows. A bell tower rises above the semi-circular entrance portico, defining the structure's appearance.

The building was constructed between 1822 and 1824 and designed by architect Robert Smirke, who was well-regarded at that time. Funding came from the Church Building Commission, an organization that supported many new churches across England during that period.

The church is named after Saint Philip and displays long galleries along three sides of its interior, with stained glass windows from the 1800s. A memorial on the wall honors those who served in the First World War, something visitors notice as they walk through.

Visitors can call on this building on various days to attend regular worship services and community activities. The church is easily accessible from the street and welcomes those who wish to explore its architecture and interior spaces.

A two-manual organ by Renn and Boston from 1829 was originally placed in one location and later relocated to the west gallery. This move occurred in 1873 after modifications to the instrument, and visitors can still see the work today.
