Christ Church, Macclesfield, Georgian church in Macclesfield, England
The brick and stone church features a 107-foot tower, continuous galleries supported by cast iron columns, and traditional box pews throughout the interior space.
Charles Roe commissioned the construction of Christ Church in 1775, completing the building in seven months to serve the growing population of Macclesfield.
Methodist founder John Wesley delivered at least twelve sermons from the prominent 3.5-meter pulpit, which remained a central feature of the church's design.
The Churches Conservation Trust maintains public access to Christ Church, with paved paths and ramp facilities available for visitors with mobility requirements.
The church houses ten bells from 1777 in its tower, which stands deliberately taller than the neighboring St Michael's Church tower.
