Meole Brace is a south-western suburb of Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. The Church of Holy Trinity, Meole Brace was consecrated in 1869 and is believed to be the 4th church on the present site since Saxon (pre Domesday) times. It replaced a 70 year old church of such apparent ugliness that the eccentric vicar of the time decided to replace it!
Holy Trinity is an active and thriving church and was very busy on the day I visited when Christmas preparations were in full swing.
The church is famous for its association with the author Mary Webb, who was married there. It is also know for its collection of windows designed by William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Ford Maddox Brown as well as by Kempe and Powell.
