WOOLTON CHURCH


The new Woolton Church was consecrated by the Bishop of Chester on Saturday last. This was built by subscription from the neighbouring gentry, after designs by Mr Daniel Stewart of Warren Street. It is a simple Grecian structure. The building we understand has not cost £1400. On Sunday a charity sermon was preached for the Woolton schools. A collection of £37 was made.
