Holy Trinity Church, Warrington

is in the centre of the town of Warrington, Cheshire, England. The church has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building

A chapel of ease known as Trinity Chapel was built on the site in 1708 to relieve pressure on the parish church of St Elphin's. (my blip yesterday) It was built as an oratory by Peter Legh of Lyme Park. By the 1750s the chapel was too small for its congregation and in 1758 subscriptions were raised to build a new church, which was consecrated in 1760. The architecture is in the style of James Gibbs, but he was ill at the time the church was built and it is thought it was designed by one of Gibbs' associates. In 1862 a west clock tower was added which was designed by W. P. Coxon, the Borough Surveyor; the tower belongs to the town rather than to the church. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) . . . Nothing like as nice as St Elphin's and looks much older (its not by many years!!) due to being filthy dirty and in a land locked town centre location, it does however have one claim to fame There is a brass chandelier inside that formerly hung in St Stephen's Chapel in the House of Commons, It was rescued after a fire and presented to the church in 1801
