Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation, Manchester, Grade II listed Orthodox church in Higher Broughton, England
The Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation features a three-bay Corinthian order portico and channelled ashlar fronting along its classical architectural design.
Completed in 1861 by architects Clegg & Knowles, this structure stands as the first purpose-built Greek Orthodox church constructed in England.
The church's iconostasis displays paintings by Theodoros Vryzakis, a notable 19th-century Greek academic artist represented in the National Art Gallery of Athens.
The church conducts Sunday liturgies and maintains a community school teaching Greek language, culture, and history to over 100 students.
Originally featuring a domed ceiling with a Christ Pantocrator mural, the church received a pitched roof replacement in 1962 due to dry rot.
