St Mary's church is located on the south side of Merlin Street at its junction with Offa Street. It was built in 1926-28 in a conventional Perpendicular style to designs of architect E.Glyn.Wooley, and modified in 1957 with the completion of the chancel. Constructed of rustic brick with stone dressings under slate roofs, the church comprises nave and chancel in a single chamber, south aisle, north-west porch with timberwork in the gable, and north-east flat-roofed
?vestry. An intended north-east tower was never built. The interior is spacious and lofty, but with no clerestory, walls white-painted plaster and dressings of harder brick.
This church was built to replace the iron church of St Mary's which was demolished (NPRN 420488).
