All Saints' Church, Gresford

Welcome !

All Saints' Church, Gresford is one of the most beautiful churches in the whole of Wales. Perched above the vale of the Alyn; still on a pillar of coal; its tower with most notable peal of bells has dominated the skyline for centuries. Its architecture internally warmed with wood; lit by mediaeval stained glass it thrills but does not overawe. A living church with its daily round of prayer and praise - a meeting place between people and God, a place where folk can have an actual encounter with the Risen Christ.
