Churches and Cathedrals in Greenside

"Warrington’s parish church is an atmospheric sandstone building with a spire 86 metres high. This is the eighth highest spire in the country, and the fifth highest among parish churches. Most of St Elphin’s dates from a restoration that took place in the 1860s, but there are fragments of earlier buildings."

"At the top, look inside St Michael’s Church, which commands the Market Place and can be seen across the town. Although the church was almost completely rebuilt at the start of the 20th century it is highly regarded for its two historic chapels. Here you’ll encounter what is considered to be Cheshire’s richest collection of alabaster effigies, produced in the 16th and 17th centuries for the Legh and Savage families."

"This 13th-century church about a mile north of Macclesfield is the fourth church on this site. But what’s unusual is that the third church is still here, out among Medieval yew trees. There’s a Norman Romanesque chapel in the churchyard, dating to the 12th century, with semi-circular door and window arches and weathered but visible tympanum relief and lozenge patterns in the archivolts."

"A secret chasm in the Staffordshire area of the Peak District awaits you. Lud’s Church is another short walk in the Peaks but offers a unique experience walking through a mossy rift 100m long and 18m deep. The temperature drops as you enter, and it adds to the occasion."

"Located on Thomas Street in the Northern Quarter, the Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art is a leading exhibition in exploring contemporary Chinese culture, through performances, workshops and film screenings. It is currently awaiting a date for reopening."

"Expect authentic Indian street food dishes alongside curry house classics at this Curry Mile restaurant. Mimicking the style of the ‘dhabba’ cafes in India, snacks, small plates and charcoal pit dishes are served to the centre of your table as and when they are ready. Don’t miss the charred lamb chops."
