Church Of St Elizabeth

The Church of St Elizabeth is a church built in 1880 by the Honourable Wilbraham Egerton MP. It features red English garden wall bond brick and terracotta, topped with a red tile roof. The church has a broad, aisleless plan that includes a nave, chancel, transepts, a north-east vestry, and a south-west porch.

The nave elevation consists of three bays with windows in a free perpendicular style, and there is a corbel table with chevron moulding between the bays. The gabled buttresses have setbacks. The transept windows are designed in the Decorated style, while the chancel windows are arcuated triangles containing three trefoils. The east end is gabled and features a window of Decorated form.

On the west front, there are angle buttresses and deep nave buttresses that are stepped and gable capped. It has a range of three lancet windows with colonnettes between them and trefoil heads made of moulded brick, along with a trefoil rose window of rubbed brick with semi-circular lead moulding. The bellcote has two lancets, one of which contains a bell, and is adorned with a quatrefoil and gargoyles above. The south-west porch has a gabled roof and a hollow chamfered entrance arch of rubbed brick with chevron moulding at the gable. Inside, there are arched beams resting on stone corbels, diagonal panelling on the roof, and hammer beams in the chancel. The church retains its original iron gates and lanterns.

The Honourable Wilbraham Egerton became the 2nd Baron Egerton of Tatton in 1883 and was later created Viscount Salford and Earl Egerton of Tatton in 1887. He also designed the smoking room and family entrance at Tatton Park, and there are architectural drawings for further projects by him among the estate papers.
