Editing Malin Bridge (section)

===St Polycarp's Church, Malin Bridge===
Originally Malin Bridge was in the parish of [[Wadsley]], however a separate parish was created in 1933 as the population of the area increased. A [[tin tabernacle]] had previously been used for worship as the area had no church and fundraising was commenced to build St [[Polycarp]]'s at the junction of Loxley Road and Wisewood Lane. The foundation stone for the new church was laid by the [[Bishop of Sheffield]] and it was built by H.I. Potter of Fowler, Sandford & Potter in 1933–34, the former tin tabernacle remaining in use as the church hall until the 1960s when the new church hall was built adjacent to the church. The church is built of rustic brick with a pantile roof with no tower or spire; windows are grouped in threes. The interior consists of a four bay [[nave]] and a broad [[chancel]] with a tall arch. A small glazed porch was added in 1992 at the western end.<ref name="test8">{{cite web|url=http://www.sheffieldfhs.org.uk/serv_con/StPolycarp.htm|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080723131846/http://www.sheffieldfhs.org.uk/serv_con/StPolycarp.htm|archivedate=23 July 2008|title=St Polycarp, Malin Bridge |publisher= Sheffield & District Family History Society|accessdate=14 April 2008}}</ref><ref name="test9">''"Pevsner Architectural Guides – Sheffield"'', Ruth Harman & John Minnis, {{ISBN|0-300-10585-1}}, Page 293 Gives architectural details for buildings.</ref>
