St Thomas' Church, Halliwell, Gothic Revival church in Halliwell, England
The red brick structure features an eight-bay nave, clerestory windows, stepped lancet windows, and rose windows incorporated into its architectural design.
In 1875, the architectural firm Sharpe, Paley and Austin completed this church with financial support from the Cross family, local mill owners.
The interior walls display religious symbols, including angels and fleur-de-lis patterns, while stone pulpits and wooden reredos enhance the sacred space.
Located at coordinates 53.5926, -2.4427 on Eskrick Street, the church contains 849 seats and maintains regular Anglican services within Manchester diocese.
Despite its Grade II* listed status recognizing exceptional architectural merit, the northwest tower of the church remains intentionally incomplete.
