Nice old tower with flagpole but no church, very large church yard and a new church alongside with a benchmark on the corner.

All Saints Church, Marple (old & new). Both the old and the new church stand along side each other on the same grounds, but only the tower remains of the old church (and that is the trig point). Both are Grade II listed. The old church was built between 1808-11. However, by 1870, the church was considered to be too small, given the size of the congregation. Hence, a new church was built, which was completed in 1880. Nevertheless, by 1964, the condition of the old church had significantly deteriorated, and all but the tower (which was strengthened) was therefore demolished. All good with the tower and the centre. However, the vane has gone, and only a flagstaff remains at the top of the tower. There is a cut benchmark on the northwest face of the new church

Bizarre to find a church tower without a church attached to it, but one adjacent. Four clocks on the tower and all working. Peak and Northern Footpath Society are gifted to today.
