Church of St Wilfrid, Northenden, Anglican church in Northenden, England

The Church of St Wilfrid stands on Ford Lane near the River Mersey, constructed with red Alderley Edge sandstone and featuring a cruciform floor plan.

The original structure dates from the 15th century, with records mentioning a church at Norwardine in the Domesday Book, and received Grade II* listed status in 1952.

The interior contains medieval rood screens with distinct imagery, including representations of tumblers and a monkey playing a drum above the south chapel doorway.

The church holds traditional communion services every Sunday at 8:00 AM in the Tatton Chapel, followed by additional services throughout the day at 10:30 AM and 6:30 PM.

The bell tower remains the only medieval component of the building, maintaining its original Perpendicular Gothic style from before the 1870s renovations.
