St Wenefrede's Church, Bickley
St Wenefrede's Church is in the civil parish of Bickley, Cheshire, England. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building,[1] and is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester, and the deanery of Malpas.[2]
History
The church was built in 1892 and designed by the Chester firm of Douglas and Fordham for the 4th Marquess of Cholmondeley.[3]
Architecture
The church is built in sandstone and has a roof of green slates with terracotta roof tiles. Its plan consists of a broad, low, west tower, a south porch against the tower, a three-bay nave with a narrow north passage-aisle, a chancel, and two north vestries. The tower is in two stages with a splay-footed octagonal spire. It has a three-light west window and three-light bell-openings in the stage above. Inside the church is a hammerbeam roof.[1] There are texts on the roof beam, the pulpit and the organ case. In the church are two stained glass windows designed by J. E. Nuttgens.[3]
