St John the Baptist Church
Dowling Street, Rochdale, Greater Manchester, OL11 1EX
The Eric Newton (Oppenheimer) mosaic surrounding the high alter depicting Christ the King is dramatic and thought provoking. The mosaic was restored in 2022/23 with the help of lottery funding. The Church itself is iconic with its large white dome.
