Congregational Church, Winsford is in Swanlow Lane, Over, Winsford, Cheshire, England (grid reference SJ640659). It is a Grade II listed building.[1]
It was built between 1864 and 1865 to a design by John Douglas. The church is built in brick with a slate roof with a blue brick plinth above which are alternating bands of red and white brick. The roof has grey, green and mauve slates arranged in patterns.[1] Pevsner describes it as being "very ugly".[2]
