St Jude's Roman Catholic Church
St Jude's Roman Catholic Church, Catholic church in Poolstock Lane, Wigan, England.
The church structure features a fan-shaped design made of reinforced concrete and brick, forming an isosceles triangle with squared-off corners.
St Jude's Roman Catholic Church opened in July 1965 after construction costs exceeded £100,000 due to additional reinforced foundations required for coal mining subsidence.
The interior contains a 17-foot by 9-foot mosaic of the crucifixion created by Hans Unger and Eberhard Schulze, along with Stations of the Cross mosaics.
The church conducts two Sunday masses weekly and offers reconciliation services before Saturday evening Mass and on Wednesdays for the local community.
The dalle de verre stained glass on the nave walls, designed by Robin Riley and manufactured in France, represents a distinctive element of modern church architecture.
