Thanks for posting Ron. This is the first time I've seen an image of the church where in 1873 my maternal great grandparents were married.

In similar vein to the other comment, my Great Grand Parents, John Shaw Hart and Jayne Clough were married there in September 1886, theres a photo of them underthe Hart Family elsewhere on this website. I vaguely remember the Church being demolished. Does anyone have any details of that or the date
