Built by the Earl of Sefton 1869-1871, St Chad's has an early font with carvings of Adam and Eve, the serpent, and the seven orders of clergy on.
The reredos is a Salviati mosaic, designed by Henry Holiday, that matches the unique set of windows installed over a long period, to Holiday's design.
The congregation actively welcomes visitors, and enjoys enabling others to discover their heritage.
