A decade after the Victorian Society named it in the top ten of the country's most endangered buildings it remains in desperate need of love, care, and cash. But a new campaign has been launched to save a Salford chapel which resembles a fairy-tale castle.
The Grade II listed Agecroft Chapel, shrouded by trees and ivy with its tower looming through the greenery resembles the lonely Gothic retreat of Edward Scissorhands Other admirers have likened it to Rapunzel’s castle.
In 2012 the Victorian Society named the ‘woefully neglected’ as at risk. In 2020 SAVE Britain's Heritage chose it as it's building of the month to highlight the urgent need for action.
