St Mary’s Wavertree, Liverpool
St Mary’s Wavertree originated as a Methodist church, which was built in 1872–73. In the 1880s additions were made to it, including a tower with a broach spire. The church was damaged during the First World War, and was renovated in 1925. It failed to flourish, and closed as a Methodist church in 1950.
St Mary’s Anglican church was designed by W. and J. Hay and built in Sandown Park. The foundation stone was laid on 15 August 1850, and the church was consecrated in 1856, but it was destroyed by bombing in the Second World War. When the Methodists closed the church, it was sold to the Church of England, and converted for use as an Anglican church. This was consecrated in December 1952.
