[clarification needed] The building of the church was funded by Amy Elizabeth Imrie, a Catholic convert and nun, who became an abbess of the Poor Clare Sisters.

She was the heiress to the White Star Line shipping fortune when her uncle, William Imrie, died in 1906.

The Archdiocese was prevented by Liverpool City Council in 2002 from stripping the church's Italian High Renaissance-style interior fixtures and fittings.
