Christ Church, Chatburn, Anglican church in Chatburn, England
The limestone church features a three-stage tower with clock faces and red sandstone additions from 1882, including north and south aisles.
Edmund Sharpe designed Christ Church in 1837 as one of his first projects, completing construction within a year at a cost of £950.
The church maintains strong connections with the Methodist congregation through combined services and events that bring the entire village together.
The building contains a west end gallery and includes modern facilities such as a kitchen and access provisions for people with disabilities.
Lightning struck the spire in 1854, leading to repairs that introduced architectural modifications while maintaining the Romanesque Revival style.
