Brookfield Unitarian Church was built between 1869 and 1871 to replace the Gorton Chapel, which stood on the same ground.
The church steeple contains a peal of eight bells, all named after members of the Peacock family.
Nikolaus Pevsner's The Buildings of England describes the church as "very large and strikingly-prosperous looking.
"[1] The church, and its graveyard, have suffered much from vandalism in recent years.
The Church was built on top of the Gorton Chapel, which was established in 1703.
