About Us

St Cyprian's is a delightful Victorian church built by James Horsfall and positioned next to his factory now Webster Horsefall Latch and Batchelor Ltd. We have a small, friendly, active community from a wide range of backgrounds and with a broad spread of interests. What holds us together is Christian faith and a desire to explore more of the God who reveals himself in Jesus Christ and what he calls each of us to in our lives. We have a particular passion for the natural world and you will find around the church a recently planted urban orchard and a colony of honey bees.


We are an open and welcoming community and any who wish, can discover a home amongst us. Come and worship in our Victorian Grade 2 listed building with its excellent set of stained glass windows, check out the Wikipedia article for more history and photographs. The congregation are actively engaged in support to missions in Africa (Uganda) and elsewhere. Next to the church is the old Victorian schoolroom and we also have the recently refurbished Memorial Hall, with its fully equipped kitchen, which is available for hire for parties, receptions and other meetings.

This site shares something of our life – our worship and other activities. Please explore and if you want to find out more, do get in touch with us. Parking is available opposite the church. Disabled access is completely on the level from the pavement into the church, which now has a fully disabled access toilet,  and into the memorial hall.

Through Jesus Christ in unity Reaching out with love and Service to the community.
