St Benedict's, a former Anglican church is a massive imposing building in Bennett Street. It was built in 1880. The main East end is dominated by a huge brick wall facade and an enormous Geometric "Rose" window above.

St Benedict's Church closed in December, 2002. The Grade II* listed building is now home for the Manchester Climbing Centre.
