Construction of the nave, north and south aisles was rapid and it was opened less than one year later on 1 October 1885.

Internally they were finished with rough stucco with Bath and Handsworth stone dressings.

The roofing tiles came from J.C. Edwards of Ruabon, North Wales, and the heating apparatus was installed by Musgrave and Company of Belfast.

Rust of London provided the green and blue chancel floor tiles.

A pipe organ was installed by Charles Lloyd of Nottingham at a cost of £230 and opened on Easter Day 1889.
