Churches (154) : St Mary Magdalene, Alsager

The church of St Mary Magdalene in Alsager, Cheshire was built between 1892-6 to replace an earlier "iron church" (a metal pre-fabricated church). The church took a long time to finish, the North aisle not being completed until 1936. The tower was originally planned to be higher and have a spire, it is only the same height as the nave.

The church has North and South aisles, a clerestory, and chancel and vestry and a West tower. The church is built from red sandstone.
