St Winefride's Church, Holywell, Roman Catholic church in Holywell, United Kingdom
St Winefride's Church features a neo-classical front with ashlar stonework, slate roof, stepped pediments, and a crucifix finial at its summit point.
The church construction began in 1832 under architect Joseph John Scoles, replacing an earlier chapel from 1808 that served the local Catholic community.
The interior contains Classical design elements, including a flat ceiling, stained glass windows, and a Byzantine-style shrine dedicated to Saint Winefride.
Located at an elevation of 97.8 meters, the church holds regular services and remains under the administration of the Diocese of Wrexham.
Five decorative banners created by Baron Corvo in the 1890s remain preserved in the former Baptistery section of the church building.
