St Maxentius' Church, Bradshaw, Gothic Revival church in Bradshaw, England

The cruciform structure exhibits geometric tracery windows, a long nave, transepts, chancel, and vestry, with a bellcote positioned at the western end.

The current church, completed in 1872 by architect Edward Graham Paley, replaced an earlier brick and stone building from 1770 that needed extensive repairs.

The interior features an octagonal font from 1550, a 1960s mosaic depicting Saint Maxentius, and stained glass windows created by Shrigley and Hunt.

Sunday services occur at 9:30 AM, offering Family Communion with varied music styles and a dedicated program for children aged 0 to 4 in the Vestry.

This Grade II listed building stands as the sole church in England dedicated to Saint Maxentius, with six World War I and one World War II graves in its yard.
