[3] Christ Church was built for the Grand Junction Railway in 1843, and was almost certainly designed by John Cunningham.

[1] The church was consecrated on 18 December 1845 by the Rt Revd John Bird Sumner, Bishop of Chester.

On the top of the tower is a stepped and gabled parapet, with octagonal crocketed pinnacles at the corners.

[1] Some of the walls of the church remain, including parts of the red brick chancel.

Also retained is a pair of columns: survivors of a set that until 1901 supported galleries in the nave.
