St Mary of the Angels, Liverpool, England, Grade II listed Roman Catholic church building in Liverpool, England
St Mary of the Angels features a high altar crafted from imported marble, along with traditional architectural elements common in religious structures of its time period.
The church, constructed in 1907, received funding from Amy Elizabeth Imrie, who inherited wealth from her uncle William Imrie of the White Star Line shipping enterprise.
The building now functions as a rehearsal space for the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, which has renamed the structure to The Friary since 2006.
The former church building stands on Fox Street with attached structures including a friary, bell frame, walls, railings, and gates surrounding the perimeter.
Liverpool City Council intervened in 2002 to protect the original Italian High Renaissance interior elements from removal after the church closed in 2001.
