Date:1869 - 1965 (c.)
Description:St Asaph's Church stood at the junction of Great Colmore Street and Latimer Street. This would be just about where Lytham Croft meets Great Colmore Street today. It was built in 1869 to a design by Yeoville and Thomason. It was eventually demolished in the 1960s - the last baptisms being in 1949 and the last marriage in 1958. Both of these ceremonies were transferred over to St Luke's on Bristol Street. Some items from St Asaph's survived demolition such as the font which can now be seen in St Luke's Church.
