More about this scene

St Margaret's sits halfway between Altrincham and the estate of Dunham Massey (now maintained by the National Trust), hence the title given by Frith's to this photograph. The church was built in 1855. Originally there was a spire on top of that powerful tower, but this was removed in 1927. The war memorial has also been moved – it now sits well within a memorial garden across the road.
