How do I find a Catholic church near me in Manchester?
Catholic Manchester is the Diocese of Salford, not a cathedral city in the same sense as Westminster. The church people ask for by nickname is St Mary’s, the Hidden Gem — consecrated in 1794 on a narrow lane off the shopping streets, a rare example of a church built before Catholic Emancipation.
The Holy Name on Oxford Road is Joseph Hansom’s 1871 Gothic church beside the universities. The Manchester Oratory (Congregation of the Oratory of St Philip Neri) is on Cheetham Hill Road. 4 listings is the published set, not every Mass centre in Greater Manchester.
