Standing at this cross-roads in Salford since 1635. Surprising former parishioners here were the Webb Ellis family whose son invented Rugby, at the school of the same name, by running with the ball. New building is beginning to encroach on all sides.

Originally known as "Chapel", Sacred Trinity is Salford's oldest church and gave the street its name. Prior to this, the street was actually called Sergeant Street. Trinity Church dates from 1635 and was originally built as a chapel-of-ease to serve the growing population of Salford. Most of the current building dates from 1752. It is Grade II* listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1386185 Church website: https://sacredtrinity.org.uk/ Within the churchyard is the Salford War Memorial which is Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1441038 It commemorates 124 local servicemen who died during the First World War and one of the most famous civilian casualties of the First World War, Edith Cavell. Cavell worshipped at Salford's Sacred Trinity Church in the period 1906-7 when she lived in the area and worked at the Manchester and Salford Workhouse under the auspices of the Queen's Nursing Institute. During the war, Cavell became involved in helping allied soldiers caught behind enemy lines to escape to Britain through Holland. She was arrested and killed in August 1915.

War Memorial in the grounds of Sacred Trinity Church. The cross-shaped monument is in memory of Salford people who gave their lives in World War One. There is one notable non-Salfordian on the list: Edith Cavell, the nurse turned informer who helped the British gain valuable information from the Germans during the war. http://www.visitsalford.info/documents/chapelstreettrail.pdf Chapel Street Heritage Trail
