St Paul's Church, Grade II listed church in Preston, England
The Gothic Revival church stands with pointed arches, octagonal turrets, and tall lancet windows in a sandstone construction with tiled roofs.
Thomas Rickman and Henry Hutchinson designed the church in 1823, with construction completed in 1825 at a cost of £6,221.
The former religious building transformed into a radio station in 1981, housing Red Rose Radio and later Rock FM until 2020.
The church features a seven-bay nave, full-height aisles, a two-bay chancel, and stands within St Paul's Square near multiple public transport options.
War memorials from the parish remain on the grounds, including a hexagonal column commemorating local residents who perished in conflicts.
