Holy Trinity Church, Greenfield is a beautiful church located in Greenfield, a town in Flintshire, Wales. It's an active Anglican church, meaning it's part of the Church in Wales. This church is an important local landmark and is officially recognized as a Grade II listed building. This means it's a special building that needs to be protected because of its history and architecture.
Building the Church
The church was first built between 1870 and 1871. A famous architect named Ewan Christian designed the original building. It had a main area called a nave and a side section known as a south aisle. The windows were tall and narrow, a style called lancet windows.
Christian had plans for more parts, like a special chapel and a room called a vestry. However, these parts were never built at that time. The church was ready for people to worship in it by October 1871.
Later Additions
Many years later, between 1910 and 1911, another architect made some changes. This was John Douglas from Chester. He added a new section called a chancel, which is the part of the church where the altar is. This new part had a simpler design.
After these additions, the church was officially dedicated on April 25, 1911. This ceremony is called a consecration.
