Holy Trinity Church, Blackburn

Holy Trinity Church is in Mount Pleasant, Blackburn, Lancashire, England.

The foundation stone was laid on 11 October 1837 by Rev John Bird Sumner, then the Bishop of Chester.

[6] The completion of the tower was delayed due to lack of funds until 1853, and the intended spire was never built.

[7] In 1860 internal alterations were carried out under the direction of E. G. Paley, Sharpe's successor in the practice.

[7] At the east ends of the transepts and the chancel, the window arrangement is unusual, consisting of 2-3-2 lights, a feature more commonly found in Germany.

[7] Elsewhere are the arms of the other monarchs, going back to Edward the Confessor, bishops and other churchmen (including Whittaker), and William Whewell (one of Sharpe's patrons).

[11] The painters employed included William Birch, Benjamin West, John Brocklehurst and Samuel Driver.
