Churches and Cathedrals in Stockton Heath

"Chester Cathedral is an excellent example of an English monastic church as it heavily focuses on the New Red Sandstone during the structure’s construction. As a result, it resulted in a more pinkish tone on the inside and outside the cathedral. You can also opt to take a tour of the cathedral, do pay special attention to the stained glass windows, also referred to by many as the West Window."

"The May Blitz of 1941 saw St Luke’s church forever changed when a bomb landed right on top of it’s roof. Over time, the city has lovingly restored it back to life and it now plays host to everything from weddings, to gigs, to farmers markets and cinema screenings. The church itself and the gardens around it are a total treat for the eye."

"St Luke’s Church, or the Bombed Out Church to the locals, sits proudly at the top of Bold Street and is a great spot for a photograph, especially if you get to head inside. Known as the Bombed Out Church because it no longer has a roof, it makes for an interesting photo for the collection. View this post on Instagram"

"Also known as St. Luke’s Church, the Bombed-Out Church lost its roof during the World War II blitz and has now been transformed into a wedding venue, café and a great spot for pictures. The church is incredible to look around and is also filled with so much history."

"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.

"This little North West city is packed full of unique buildings, and Church bar is one that really stands out from the crowd.

The front of the bar provides a long outdoor space that is one of the best beer gardens in Chester."

"The Church is housed within a beautifully converted former church and retains much of its original charm. The venue features a charming Gallery Restaurant, a breezy terrace and bellini bar."
