St Michael's, Macclesfield

St Michales, Macclesfied 108 steps leading to St Michael's from the east.

A chapel was founded on this site soon after the borough was established around 1220. This was extended or rebuilt, as All Hallows or All Saints, around 1278 by Queen Eleanor, the wife of King Edward I. It has been rebuilt several times, most recently in 1901. However a number of important additions remain from earlier times, especially the Legh and Savage chapels, and several memorials.
