Texte de Wikipédia en anglais, en attente de traduction.

The Church of St Mary in the Baum or Church of St Mary-in-the-Baum is an Anglican church in the diocese of Manchester, England. Commissioned in 1738, and opened in 1742 as a chapel of ease, the chapel was extended in the 19th century. In the very early 20th century the church authorities determined to construct a new building and they commissioned Ninian Comper to undertake the task. Comper designed a completely new church to an unusual plan, due to the constriction of the urban site. He incorporated elements of the original chapel into the new design. St Mary's remains an active parish church in the Anglican Diocese of Manchester. It is a Grade I listed building.
