This building, while obviously still in use for Christian worship, lacks any obvious external signage so is at first sight a bit of a mystery. In fact, this former United Reform Church was purchased by the Coptic Orthodox Church and consecrated by Pope Shenouda III in 1997. It replaced a smaller facility in Moss Side.
