St. Margaret's Church, Aspley, Anglican church in Aspley, England
St. Margaret's Church is an Anglican church building in Aspley constructed of red brick with stone dressings and a castellated western tower. The interior features buff-colored brick walls, and the tower contains eight bells cast by Taylor & Co of Loughborough.
The foundation stone was laid in November 1934, and the church was consecrated on February 15, 1936, replacing a temporary wooden structure. The consecration ceremony marked the completion of construction that began during the 1930s.
The east window displays the risen Christ through contemporary stained glass work that weaves together imagery from the 1930s with modern craftsmanship. This blending shows how the community has connected its past and present through visual art.
The building offers level access throughout its main areas and welcomes visitors traveling with dogs. The church is managed by the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham and remains open for regular visits.
A clock installed in the tower in 1953 by G F Cope & Co serves as a war memorial to 39 Aspley residents who died during World War II. This quiet tribute links the passage of time with a significant local memory.
