History

The church was built in 1911 by the Lancaster architects Austin and Paley.

It is located on Newcastle Avenue. It is built in the 15th-century Perpendicular style.

Memorials

The church contains the medieval-style alabaster canopied tomb of Sir John Robinson, the builder of the church. The monument comprises a recumbent effigy in Carrara marble by Albert Toft. This was designed by Henry Paley of the Lancaster architectural practice; its estimated cost was £2,055.

Organ
