lynnl Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Does anyone know what happened to St. Augustine's church in Latchford? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter T Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 It has been demolished. They joined up with Our Lady's on St. Mary Street and either this month or next move into the newly built church on Lower Wash Lane, junction with Knutsford Road. I don't know what is happening with Our Lady's. There was talk of demolishing it, but rumour has it that it is a listed building. The problem was the cost of repairing the foundations.

Dizzy Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 I don't know what is happening with Our Lady's St Mary's Street/i]. There was talk of demolishing it, but rumour has it that it is a listed building. Not a rumour Peter it IS Grade II listed (listing date 17 March 2005) ... not long ago really.

Peter T Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Thanks Dizzy. I seem to remember some comment that it was applied for when they heard about the new church being built. Must make things a bit awkward as I believe that the church won't fund the repairs. Does that mean that time and nature will destroy it? I was surprised that it is a fairly new church. I thought that it was older than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
