Our Heritage
St Michael and All Angels is a grade 2* listed building sitting on the top of war hill Mottram. The current church building was built in the 1500’s, although the site is believed to have been a place of Christian worship since the 1200’s. It is still a place alive with worship to this day. Each generation has left its mark from the stone font (older than St Michael’s itself) to the Victorian woodwork and Mottram war memorial which is inside the church itself. This all adds to the history and heritage of this much loved and special place.
