A little history ...This was once part of Ellison Hall and used as a stable. Around 1886-7, F.R.Wilson, architect, designed this church, now GRII listed. It is made of sandstone with a Welsh slate roof. Interesting, but it stands on the remains of a 14th century pele tower which was used as a lookout...
