This is a beautiful building in a location up the hill so good views all around and down onto the town. The stone work is lovely with intricate decorative features and inside there are wonderful examples of stained glass in the windows and striking ceiling displays. There were only a couple of people in the building when I visited but it was plain to see that this is very much community oriented with children’s play areas, tables and chairs in addition to the pews and also lots of information.
Nice. Really good to visit. A lot of interest history to be found. Unfortunately showing signs of untidy neglect and could do with some attention. No-one in sight when we visited. Check times before visiting. Not open much really.
Impressive from the outside. Found one info board in the surrounding area about an old pub next door that was demolished. Not open when I was there around 10am.
My favourite place in Rotherham for worship and prayers. Great team and super coffee morning on Tuesday. Not to be missed if visiting Rotherham.
Beautiful building. Visited when in Rotherham for the first time. Monday afternoon about 2pm, was able to access the Church for quiet and private prayer. There is no holy water available by the main entrance door (or anywhere I saw inside). Also, have to say I do not think they reserve the sacrament (couldn’t see any sanctuary lamps at the high Altar or chapel) which is a shame. The presence of Christ would have been welcome for my prayers. Did not attend a Mass / Eucharist service but would like to.
