St Mary's Church, West Derby, Liverpool

St Mary's replaced a chapel of ease to St Mary's, Walton, When it was demolished, evidence was found of Saxon material on the site. The land for the present church, which is located near the entrance to the main drive to Croxteth Hall, was given by the Earl of Sefton, who also donated £500 to the cost of the church. The Earl commissioned George Gilbert Scott to design it. The foundation stone was laid on 13 April 1853, and the church was completed in 1856. The large central tower was paid for by the banker John Pemberton Heywood.

Inside the church the nave arcades are carried on circular piers. This was replaced in 1891 by another three-manual organ by the same manufacturers. This was rebuilt in 1973 by Rushworth and Dreaper, and further additions were made to it in 1988 and in 2000 by David Wells. A further full rebuilding and modernisation of the organ was completed in 2012 by Principal Pipe Organs before returning to the care of David Wells in 2017.
