St Elphins Church

St Elphin's Church is the area church of the town of Warrington, Cheshire, England. The congregation is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as an assigned Grade II recorded building. It is a functioning Anglican ward church in the bishopric of Liverpool, the archdeaconry of Warrington and the deanery of Warrington. A position of love has been available on the site since around 650 AD, and the nearness of a cleric in Warrington was recorded in the Domesday Book. As per custom the principal church was worked by Saint Oswald for his friend Elphin, who stayed as the primary minister there until his passing in 679. The most punctual texture in the present church is in the chancel and the sepulcher, which make due from the congregation worked in 1354 by Sir William Boteler.

The congregation was gravely harmed by the Parliamentary powers in the Civil War. Following this the pinnacle was remade in 1696 and the nave in 1770. The south walkway was included the mid 19^th century. Most of the texture of the present church is the consequence of a broad rebuilding somewhere in the range of 1859 and 1867 by Frederick and Horace Francis. It was amid this reclamation that the tower was included. The chimes were recast in 1698 and again in 1884. In 1950 they were recast again and the clock was replaced.
