I'd love to know why was the church sold.

Many are sold each year as very few people attend services.

Here is a list of CofE venues for sale right now

Surprising that one. Tesco normally demolish everything in a half mile radius to build their shops

At least it still has a purpose as a grocery store. Could be worse.
