Britain's What's On Event Guide
The Church on the Hill
Heritage Open Day: Visit the beautiful medieval parish church of St. Michael & All Angels:
Guided tours, Children's Heritage Trail, Art Exhibition, Craft Stalls, Refreshments. The Parish Church of St. Michael & All Angels, set on the top of Warhill in Mottram in Longdendale, is a beautiful Medieval building with a fine Victorian worship space at its heart. It was built in 1490 with a bequest from Edmund Shaa - the Lord Mayor of London who handed the crown of England to the Duke of Gloucester, making him Richard III. In 1855 the church had a major restoration by local architect E. H. Shellard, resulting in the perfect combination of 15th and 19th century styles we see today. Apart from that restoration, the layout of the building remains much as it was when it was built 500 years ago.
