Background
History
St Anne's was built between 1843 and 1846, designed by Charles Hansom, and built by the monks of Downside Abbey. It was enlarged in 1888–89 by Pugin and Pugin, who added a chancel, an apse, and two transepts, and in 1893 by Peter Paul Pugin who added a baptistry. At an unknown date its care passed from the monks of Downside Abbey to those of Ampleforth Abbey, and in 1950 the church became part of the Archdiocese of Liverpool. In 1969 the interior of the church was reordered, with the removal of the baldacchino and altar rails, and the installation of an altar.
Architecture
Inside the church, the arcades are carried on quatrefoil columns. Between the chancel and the chapels on one side, and the organ loft on the other side, the arcades are carried on a double row of columns. Around the apse is an arcade containing lancet windows. This was rebuilt and modernised in 1958, again by Willis and Sons.
