St Peter's Church, Liverpool, Gothic Revival church in Woolton, Liverpool, England
St Peter's Church stands as a red sandstone structure with a high bell tower and paired two-light bell openings across its architectural design.
Construction of the church began in 1886 by architects Grayson and Ould to replace an earlier chapel from 1826 that served the local community.
The church grounds hold particular significance as the location where John Lennon and Paul McCartney first met in 1957 during a summer festival.
The church maintains active status as a parish facility, offering regular services and accommodating approximately 500 people in its main hall.
The churchyard contains the grave of Eleanor Rigby, whose name appears in a Beatles song, though the connection remains coincidental.
