Inside St Peter's Church


I posted previously about St Peter's in June 2013. I recently paid another visit and took several photographs inside the church.


The focal point of the church is the High Altar, with the reredos painting of the Agony in the Garden which was given in memory of John Mottershead. The east wall has five Belgian stained glass windows by Carponnier placed here to the glory of God and as an affectionate memorial of the Revd Henry Wright and Mary Catherine his wife by their daughter Julia Catherine Wright 1889.


The gallery displays the Blessed Sacrament banner, and those of the Communicants Guilds: St Peter (men) Our Lady (women) St Stephen (boys) and St Agnes (girls), together with the MU banner.

I'll post close-ups of the reredos and the stained glass at a later date.

A contribution to Inspired Sundays.
