The rear of Runcorn Spiritualist Church in Ashridge Street, originally built in 1888 as a Mission Hall and classroom by Mr G Marshall, a local chemist who was also an evangelist preacher. Since 1908, when it was bought by a group of Spiritualists, it has provided for the poor in the Dukesfield area, especially at Christmas-time when the children went along for a Christmas breakfast and a little present. The church sits beneath the arch of “The Queen Ethelfleda Viaduct” which is the correct name of the railway bridge which crosses the River Mersey at Runcorn.
