Christ Church, Ince-in-Makerfield, Gothic Revival church building in Ince-in-Makerfield, England

Christ Church features rock-faced stone walls with ashlar dressings, a slate roof, and a five-bay nave with two-light plate tracery windows throughout the structure.

The church was constructed in 1864 under the direction of architect Edward Graham Paley, during a period of significant industrial development in the Wigan area.

The interior preserves original Victorian elements including a stone pulpit, a granite-supported font, and stained glass windows created by F. Holt in 1893.

The Grade II listed status of the building requires specific permissions for any modifications, ensuring the preservation of its architectural features for future generations.

The chancel includes deep buttresses and geometrical tracery windows, while the transepts display wheel windows and an east turret with a slate-hung spire.
