Some of you may be interested in this amazing church. It was almost destroyed by allowing it to decay and then demolition due to safety reasons.
It's an absolutely fantastic building (larger than some cathedrals!) was nearly knocked down in the enlightened 70s! Designed by the same architect as the Midland Grand Hotel at St Pancras - Sir George Gilbert Scott.
Thankfully common sense prevailed and it has been restored and saved
