A church 184 years old and its crypt that isn't a crypt. Where Mendelssohn played. 

In this video we visit St Lukes church on Cheetham hill road in Manchester. The church was built in 1839 making it 184 years old. It stands whats left of it abandoned in a terrible state of repair. The main part intact is the undercroft or what may have been a crypt but its more likely an undercroft. This used to be one of Manchesters richest churches. The composer Mendelssohn played here on its organ. He played here in 1847. It was reported in the Manchester Guardian. The old graveyard is a sight to see and we look at some of the old graves. We also find a connection between two names in this historic video about English manchester history.
