Diverse Routes to the Modern City

As Victorian Manchester’s expansion swept across the villages south of the city, including the parishes of Rusholme, Fallowfield, Withington and Didsbury, it drew on global foundations in the labour of enslaved people and brought together people of different nations and connections, cultural and commercial.

Come and join us this autumn for a new series of talks and discussions connecting our local histories with the wider world.  See Diverse Routes to the Modern City for more details on each session.

A service of confirmations took place in church on Friday 4th October at 7.30pm, with the Rt Revd Mark Davies, Bishop of Middleton.

Art Project: Spire

For our most recent art project, we built a large temporary spire covered with silhouette images of members of our congregation.  A video showing this spire, the removal of it, and some of the bellringers who serve us each Sunday can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4UyPBQ6H4g.
