Drone flight over the stunning St Nicholas church .This church has just celebrated 175 years since it was built and I was honoured to be asked if i wouldn’t mind making a video to honour this achievement made all the more special with it being my 100th video on the channel too! A special thanks goes out to Karen Fairclough for helping to arrange this for me and also the Rev Lynne Powell who kindly gave permission for the photos and footage to be taken. Thankyou so much.

St Nicholas Church is in New Street, Sutton, Merseyside, England. It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Saint Helens, the Archdeaconry of Warrington and the diocese of Liverpool. Its benefice is combined with those of All Saints, Sutton, and St Michael and All Angels, Sutton. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.

The church was built in 1847–49 and designed by the Lancaster architects Sharpe and Paley. Its total cost was over £3,900 (equivalent to £510,000 in 2023), to which King's College, Cambridge, patron of the church, contributed £1,270 in commemoration of the fourth centenary of its foundation. The church was consecrated on 4 June 1849 by Rt Revd John Graham, Bishop of Chester. The tower was added in 1897 and the vestry in the 1960s.
