Christ Church, Adlington, Grade II listed church in Adlington, England
Christ Church is a Grade II listed building on Church Street in Adlington with walls of ashlar stone and a two-stage tower featuring angle buttresses and round-headed windows. An octagonal drum crowns the tower, where a spire once stood before its removal.
The building was designed in 1839 by architect Edward Welch and constructed with support from the Church Building Commission. After its closure as a church in 1980, it was later transformed into a restaurant space.
The building displays Norman-influenced features such as rounded arches and proportions common in 19th-century English churches. Visitors can observe these architectural details directly when entering the space.
The building now functions as a restaurant space and is easily located on Church Street in Adlington. Visitors should know that it is a private venue and viewing depends on the current opening hours.
Inside are three preserved paneled galleries, offering a rare glimpse into the furnishings of Victorian churches. These structures date from the original construction period and show how the space was once used.
