The foundation stone of a new church was laid by Sir Stephen Glynne on 31st. August 1865 and, on 15th October 1867, the church – dedicated to St. Bartholomew – was consecrated.
St. Bartholomew’s Church is designed in Gothic style and constructed of stone from the Helsby quarries.
St. Bartholomew’s is the home of ‘Bart Art’, which takes place in June each year. The work of local artists has been showcased at our festival for almost twenty years.
In addition to Bart Art, the church hosts a number of events for all the family throughout the year, from craft fairs to a Christmas market to plant sales and much more…
A warm welcome and inviting refreshments await visitors to our church.
“If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first at churchmicro@gmail.com so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication. There is also a Church Micro Stats & Information page found via the Bookmark list”
