Abstract:		 The church was built in 1869-1873, to a design by architects W and G Audsley of Liverpool, for the owner of Ellel Grange, Alderman William Preston, a distiller and merchant. By the late 20th century the building had become redundant as a place of worship, and gradually deteriorated. The pews, liturgical fittings, stained glass, tiled floor and internal joinery had been removed by late 20th century. Historic photographs show the building interior before the losses. The building is a Grade II* listed building; this reflects its outstanding national importance as a fine example of a Victorian gothic revival church, built for an estate by well-regarded architects. The church has high significance for architectural and historic value but this significance is at risk due to the poor condition of the building. Its architectural value has been damaged by the loss of the internal fittings and the stained glass, but the building still has a strong presence. Communal value is medium as the building is on private land and is not accessible or in use, although it may be important to people who once worshipped here. Evidential value is low; the HER for Lancashire was consulted but contains no information about the site, apart from the listing and at risk entries. The Building is owned by Ellel Ministries and is currently on the Historic England At Risk Register, in the highest category A.
