Great Altcar
An agricultural parish, Great Altcar extends for several miles
along the north side of the river Alt.
The village's most interesting building is the parish church, built
in 1879 by the Earl of Sefton. It is a charming 'black and white'
structure with massive timbers and, at the west end, stout posts
form an arch, support and bell turret. In the churchyard are a
pedestal font and a stoup which are from earlier churches on the
same site.
