A brief history

 

prject5Holy Trinity Church dates from 1851, when it was built to meet the needs of the then rapidly growing industrial and residential community of North Malvern. Over time it has been extended, its facilities developed, and its decoration enhanced. The interior is spacious, light and airy; the Edwardian pews are handsome and comfortable; there is some pleasing stained glass and the chancel has beautiful early Edwardian decorations; the ceilings being painted with symbols of the passion and the walls with Apostles, angels and stencilled tracery and colonnades. The windows in the church have been given in memory of various benefactors. Inside the church there are various plaques that commemorate people who have been associated with the church.

 

It is said that Elgar practiised the organ here - visitors can enjoy an interior as pleasing and delightful as it was in his day, and an organ just as tuneful! An illustrated history of the foundation, building and growth of Holy Trinity is available in the Church.

 

Recent works have renewed the lighting, updated the heating, installed toilet facilities and provided a an area for offering refreshments after some services and at other events held in church.

 

People of all ages and persuasions are most welcome at all our services. There is an area with suitable materials for toddlers to use during the services in church. We are sure that you will find our Church pleasant, comfortable and convenient for all. project2
