Christ Church, Newark

Christ Church is an Anglican parish church located where Boundary Road meets Holden Crescent in Newark. The building displays three gables and groups of three lancet windows at each end, designed in Early English architectural style.

The original building was constructed between 1836 and 1837, but the congregation replaced it with a new structure in 1956. This change reflected the growing needs of the parish and shifting patterns in the local area.

The congregation gathers here for weekly meetings, study groups, and social activities that connect local residents. These gatherings show how the building serves as a community center alongside its spiritual purpose.

The building sits at the intersection of Boundary Road and Holden Crescent with straightforward street access. Visitors should check opening times beforehand or contact the parish office by phone to arrange a visit.

Silver coins from King William IV and a list of financial supporters were sealed inside the foundation stone of the 1836 building. This hidden time capsule beneath the foundation records those who backed the church in its early years.
