Holy Trinity Church, Nottingham was a Church of England church in Nottingham from 1841 to 1958.
History
It was designed by the architect Henry Isaac Stevens.
It was a church in the early English style, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, was consecrated on 13 October 1841 by John Kaye the Bishop of Lincoln;[1] its external dimensions were Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert, and it had a square tower, on which was an octagonal lantern Шаблон:Convert high, surmounted with a spire rising Шаблон:Convert feet. It was built at a cost of £10,000 (Шаблон:Inflation).Шаблон:Inflation-fn The living was in the gift of Trustees; and had a net income of £400.[2]
It was built on land released under the 1839 enclosure of Burton Leys[3] and out of the parish of St. Mary's Church, Nottingham.
In 1859, the parishioners built Trinity Free Church as a chapel of ease to Holy Trinity. This later became independent as St. Stephen's Church, Bunker's Hill.
The church was closed for a period in 1873 when a major restoration was undertaken. The chancel was lengthened by Шаблон:Convert and the ceiling was decorated, the high box-shaped pews were docked, and the organ was removed from the west-end gallery to the chancel.[4] The restoration work was carried out under the supervision of architect William Arthur Heazell at a cost of £1,650 (Шаблон:Inflation).Шаблон:Inflation-fn
The spire was the tallest in Nottingham. Unfortunately, the spire was declared unsafe after the heavy bombing raid in the Second World War, although there was some dispute as to whether the bombing had caused the damage,[5] and it was removed by October 1942.[6] Stones from the spire were used in the new drive at St John the Evangelist's Church, Carrington when the entrance from Mansfield Road was walled up and a new drive created from Church Drive, and other stones were incorporated into a wall on the Carrington Lido side of St John's Church.[7]
In 1954, Canon R.J.R. Skipper of Holy Trinity Church, Lenton, died in the pulpit whilst preaching.
