It was built in 1839 as a chapel of ease to St Oswald's in Malpas, because the local population was growing quickly. The architect was Edmund Sharpe from Lancaster, who was well known for his Gothic Revival churches. The land was donated by Sir Philip Grey Egerton of Oulton, and the money was raised by public subscription. Around Β£2,000 was collected in total, but only Β£700 of that was spent on building the church itself. Another Β£300 went towards a house for the minister, and the rest was invested to provide an income for him. The church also received a grant of Β£120 from the Incorporated Church Building Society. It was consecrated on the 7th of January 1840 by John Sumner, the Bishop of Chester, and it became a separate parish church in its own right in 1869. It is Grade II listed and is still an active parish church. In the churchyard, overlooking the crossroads, there is a war memorial.
