I've tried to find it, no joy. I did find a few which were/ are similar in style so I tried to research other buildings by the same architects. The first was Edward Buckton Lamb, he was labelled the rogue architect because he believed in the true gothic revivalist style. St Stephens church in Blubberhouses is very similar. St Stephens church in Aldwark has a very similar tower. The other architect is William Butterfield. His tower in Wykeham is similar in style.

Hope this is of some help,

Craig

I don't think it is Sneaton, Yorkshire - the tower is quite different!

That's what I thought Wiggy and that's why I asked the OP why he thought

Sneaton. I don't think it is but I've been wrong before ;D ;D ;D ;D
