St Chad's, Wishaw is a beautiful red sandstone medieval building standing amidst fields near the De Vere Belfry. Its proximity to several reception venues makes it a popular choice for couples who are getting married, especially at 'bluebell time' when the churchyard is carpeted in blue. The congregation is friendly and comes from a wide area. Sadly, the remoteness of the church means that it cannot be left open but may be viewed by appointment.
