St Anne's Church, Haughton

About

St Anne's Church is a Grade I listed building in Denton, a town in Tameside, Greater Manchester, England. The foundation stone was laid on 1 September 1880, and the church was completed on 29 July 1882. It was designed by J.

Medland Taylor, and its construction was funded by E. Joseph Sidebotham, a member of the Sidebotham mill-owning family of Hyde. The church is built in brick in the Gothic Revival style and also incorporates timber framing.

It has been described as the best-known work of the architects, an "extraordinary free-form brick church that forms the nucleus of the most important cluster of their buildings' surviving." The lychgate and St Anne's Rectory adjoining the main church are also of architectural significance, and each is listed as a protected building in its own right.
