St. Peter's Church, Grade II listed Anglican church in Woolton, England

St Peter's Church stands with a 90-foot tower constructed from red sandstone, featuring Gothic Revival architecture designed by Grayson and Ould architects.

The church structure dates from 1887, replacing an earlier chapel from 1826 that provided space for 200 worshippers in the growing Woolton community.

The interior displays artistic elements including stained glass windows by C. E. Kempe and Morris & Co, plus an alabaster font and decorated pulpit.

The church building contains seating for 500 people across its nave and side aisles, maintaining regular Anglican services within Liverpool South Childwall deanery.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney first encountered each other at this church's hall on July 6, 1957, during a performance by The Quarrymen.
