All Souls Church, Halifax, Gothic Revival church in Haley Hill, Halifax, England
The church features a tall stone spire reaching 72 meters high, along with intricate stained glass windows and detailed stone carvings throughout the structure.
Edward Akroyd, a local industrialist, commissioned architect George Gilbert Scott to design and construct the church, which was completed in 1859.
The interior displays Victorian craftsmanship through marble columns, encaustic floor tiles, and stained glass windows created by Clayton and Bell workshops.
