St Ambrose Church, Widnes

The floor plan of the church is in the traditional gothic style, oriented east-to-west, with a nave and two side aisles, a chancel and an apse-shaped east end. The nave has five arches supported on pillars, with clerestory windows above the arches. The chancel roof is the same height as the nave. The vestry and organ are off the chancel on the south side.
