About Greek Orthodox Church of St Nicholas
The Greek Orthodox Church of St Nicholas stands in Toxteth, Liverpool, at the corner of Princes Road and Berkley Street. It is a Grade II listed place of worship, located near Princes Road Synagogue and a Welsh Presbyterian church in an area noted for substantial Victorian houses and religious buildings.
Completed in 1870, the church was designed in the Neo-Byzantine style by W. and J. Hay and constructed by Henry Sumners. Its design is a larger interpretation of the former Church of St Theodore in Constantinople, later converted into the Vefa Kilise Mosque. The elaborate exterior combines red brick with contrasting bands of white stone and uses layered arches as decoration. Three domes rise above the portico, while another crowns the nave, each set on a drum. Inside, the restrained decoration contrasts with the ornate façade, with white marble pillars topped by Byzantine-style capitals.
