Christ Church, Liverpool

Renowned for its architecture, religious singing and liberality, the Christ Church has become a popular place for a visit. Situated at Linnet Lane, between Princes Park and Sefton Park, you can find it easily. It is a Grade II listed building, having historical and cultural significance. The Christ Church was designed by architects Culshaw and Sumners. It was established on April 27, 1871, but was opened to the public only on 20th May 1872. The famous stained glass designer Henry Gustave Hiller (1865–1946) made the two southern side windows, one of which represents the east end of Liverpool's Cathedral. The church is made of stone and has a slate roof. Its famous spire is situated at the northeast corner and there is a three-light bell cavity. The inside is embellished with six-bay arcades, tall piers and a marvelous altar, crucifix and icons.
