St Paul's Church, Anglican parish church in Withington, Manchester, England
St Paul's Church features a red brick exterior with stone coping, a prominent clock tower with square buttresses, and tall rounded-headed lancet windows.
The church was established in 1841 on land donated by Wilbraham Egerton, when Withington transformed from a Lancashire village into an urban Manchester district.
Composer Felix Mendelssohn visited the church in April 1847, played the newly installed pipe organ, and declared the instrument excellent.
The church holds regular services every Sunday at 11am, with Holy Communion on second through fourth Sundays and Morning Prayer on first Sundays.
The solid oak lych gate, donated by Clayton Chorlton in 1894, was stolen during a church service in 2007.
