The original All Saints' Church in Stretford was on nearby Cyprus Street. It was consecrated in 1885 but was completely destroyed when struck by an incediary bomb on 23 December 1940. The "new" All Saints was situated on Barton Road, about a mile away from Cyprus Street, because of the original site's proximity to St Matthew's Stretford. The foundation stone was laid on 22 October 1955, with the new building being completed and consecrated on 16 March 1957.
