Christ Church Warleigh, Anglican church in Dickoya, Sri Lanka.

The granite stone church stands on a clifftop with wooden interiors, furnished with original 19th-century pieces and an ancient pipe organ.

William Scott, manager of the Governor's Mansion, established this church in 1878 during the British colonial period in Sri Lanka.

The church maintains regular Anglican services on the first and third Sundays of each month, connecting the local community to colonial religious traditions.

Located along the Hatton-Norwood road, the church offers access to visitors with a resident caretaker available for assistance throughout the day.

The cemetery contains tombstones of British tea planters, including Sir George William Robert Campbell, the first Inspector General of Ceylon Police.
