Interior of Christ Church, Todmorden

Looking down the nave from the Chancel. Christ Church built in1830-32 was one of the ‘Million Pound’, or Commissioner’s, churches and came to replace St Mary’s as the Parish Church, although the town remained in Rochdale Parish until 1866. By the 1980s it was accepted that the parish could not support two churches and in 1992 Christ Church was closed and St Mary’s was fully renovated and once again became the Parish Church. The church is now in private ownership and the vicarage is a private house.
