Description
This magnificent catholic church was founded in 1794 and is tucked away in the city centre behind John Dalton Street, off Deansgate. Sketched by L S Lowry in chalk and charcoal in 1962, art is an important element of the atmosphere of this imposing building.
Probably most famous for its commission - installed in 1995 - of The Stations of the Cross, by Norman Adams (RA), it has become a magnet for tourists and art lovers wishing to see some of the most important modern ecclesiastical paintings in the country.
