St Peter's Churchyard, Blythe Bridge

With plenty of colourful blossom brightening up the churchyard, the rather dour Victorian church looks less forbidding than it might otherwise do. The church was built 1847-49 originally as a chapel of ease to serve the three related settlements of Forsbrook, Blythe Bridge and Blythe Marsh; it is correctly known as St Peter's Forsbrook although it is located on Cheadle Road in Blythe Bridge.
