The former St. David’s Church building on Caernarfon Road in Bangor is up for sale by auction.

The Grade II Listed Church was built in 1888 by Sir Arthur Blomfield, an architect from London, at an original cost of £8,000. Built in an early English Gothic style and initially intended as a church for the railway community, the once thriving church closed in 2013 due to a falling congregation and increased running costs.

The online auction has a suggested opening bid of £45,000 – £55,0000 and (Unless Sold or Withdrawn Prior). Proposed online bidding ends on 21 November.

The property, described by agents Williams and Goodwin, St David’s Church benefits from a good sized plot, and retaining many of its original features such as the stained glass windows and vaulted ceiling.

The property serves in our view as an excellent opportunity for developers and could be utilised for a range of uses (subject to planning permission). Located in a prime road front site on Caernarfon Road – one of the main roads leading to Bangor City Centre and Railway Station.  We have been informed that within the grounds is the site of the former church hall which has been demolished/removed.
