St Peter's Parish Church, Stockport - History Display and chance to look around

St. Peters Square, Stockport, Greater Manchester, SK1 1NZ

  • Multiple dates available
  • In person
  • Pre-booking not required

Consecrated in 1768 St Peter's Church in St Peter's Square, Stockport, is a tranquil retreat from the busy town centre. Come and have a look around inside, learn about our history from a new display, light a candle or just pause for refreshments.

We are open Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th this year. Take a look inside this atmospheric church, which as an Anglo-Catholic Church of England Place of Worship is home to statues, vestments and processional banners similar to Roman Catholic churches. The original 1769 Whitehurst clock from the clock tower is also located on the ground floor and in full working order.

A new history display will chart St Peter's journey from the 18th Century to the 21st, and include pictures from inside the tower which is inaccessible to the public.

Saturday is the date of our free Organ Concert too so pop along earlier if you like (1000-1300), and listen to guest organists play our church and theatre organs, or piano.
On Sunday we will remain open following 1030 Mass.

Hot and cold drinks available on both dates, and if you're lucky there may still be cake left from the concert!
