Background
History
St George's was built in 1831–32 to a design by T. W. and C. Atkinson. A grant of £4,788 () was given towards its construction by the Church Building Commission. It became a parish church in 1842, with its ecclesiastical parish initially being the whole township of Hyde. A shallow chancel was added in 1882–83. The interior of the church was remodelled in 1885, the pulpit being moved from its previous central position, the seating was changed, and the organ was relocated. Considerable damage was done to the structure and furnishings of the church in the 1980s by dry rot.
Architecture
The church is constructed in stone with a slate roof. There is a ring of eight bells, all cast in 1920 by John Taylor and Company of Loughborough.
