Immanuel Church, Feniscowles, Anglican church in Feniscowles, England.
Immanuel Church in Feniscowles is a gritstone building constructed in Gothic Revival style, featuring a nave, chancel, southwest porch, and western tower with spire. Diagonal buttresses reinforce the exterior walls, creating a sturdy and carefully composed structure.
The foundation stone was laid in 1835, with William Feilden donating both the land and 100 pounds to fund construction. This local benefactor made the building of the church possible through his personal support.
The church hosts monthly Cafe Church gatherings where people sit together for coffee before worship. These informal meetings create space for community connection in a relaxed setting.
The building operates as an active parish church within the Blackburn with Darwen deanery in Lancashire. Regular worship takes place on Sundays and Thursdays throughout the year.
An eighteenth-century bell from Java hangs in the church, donated by a Feilden family member who served during the Napoleonic Wars. This rare object connects the local community to wider military and colonial history.
