St. Lawrence's Church, located in Denton, England, is a historic timber-framed building dating back to 1531. Originally established as a chapel of ease dedicated to St. James, it became a parish church under the name St. Lawrence in 1839 and remains a significant symbol of the town's religious heritage.

Known locally as Th'owd Peg, the church features unique architectural elements like wooden pegs used to join its timber structure, and it is one of only 29 remaining such buildings in England and Wales. Surrounded by green space and protected trees, St. Lawrence's Church not only serves its congregation but also enhances the local community environment for future generations.
