Church of St Mary the Virgin, Bosley, Anglican church in Bosley, England
The Church of St Mary the Virgin features a red sandstone tower, brick nave, and chancel topped with slate roofs on Leek Road.
Originally built as a timber-framed structure with a stone tower from 1500, the church underwent major reconstruction in brick during 1777.
The interior contains historic furnishings including a late 18th-century altar table, 17th-century oak pulpit, and sanctuary chairs from the same period.
