    Default online search for demolished churches

    I'm having trouble locating St Matthews CofE church in Hanley, Staffordshire (1915) and I'm presuming the reason is because it no longer exists.
    Does anyone know of a website which says where these churches were, photographs, or any other information about it?

    Have you looked at GENUKI? They talk about a St Matthew's associated with an area of Hanley and Shelton parish. There's loads of references, etc.

    "Old Maps" https://old-maps.co.uk/index.html

    click on link and enter coordinates 387046 347306
    when all maps loaded, the main window shows a modern view of Etruria
    click on "1879 old map" and/or "1880 town plans" for an historical view of that same location
    when old map loaded in main window, click on main window to zoom (note- don't click on the box marked "Enhance zoom" - anywhere but there!!)

    By clicking on later "old maps" you may be able to work out when St Mathew "disappeared". The site I identified on previous post has 1949??i
