This stunning 18th century St Ann’s Church is the third oldest building in Manchester city centre. Designed by architect John Barker, the church is built in the Renaissance style, typical of Sir Christopher Wren. It features original wrought iron work by Robert Bakewell, and the original 1712 pulpit, altar and font.
