Darcy Lever Church

By E.

On the line of railway from Normanton to Bolton there is a small station called Darcy Lever. The church there struck me, on a casual view, as one of the most beautiful examples of ecclesiastical architecture which I have ever seen, and I should therefore like very much to know the date of the structure, and, if possible, the architect. The singularity which attracts attention is the delicate tracery of the spire, which I should wish to see largely imitated.
