St Alban's Centre Bush, Limehills

St. Alban's Limehills was designed by architect P.Walker (Lochiel) and built by builder H. Hammond (Limehills). It was dedicated on the 21/7/1926 by His Lordship Bishop Isaac Richards.

When built it was a fine example of a country church built to serve a thriving community of farm workers and owners, limeworkers and sawmillers. It is a simple gable building with weatherboarding and iron roof, a small bell tower and a Lych Gate that was dedicated in 1965.

The church closed on 31 August 2003.
