Holy Trinity Church Parkfield Middleton. Chancel Fittings

There are now in preparation from designs by Mr J Medland Taylor, architect of this city, for Holy Trinity Church, Parkfield, Middleton, new oak chancel fittings, including benches and desks for choristers, prayer desks and stalls for clergy, panelling against the north and south walls, and some additions to the organ chamber. It is expected that the work will be completed by Christmas. [Manchester Guardian 27 October 1885 page 4]

The Church of Holy Trinity, Parkfield, Middleton, Lancashire, a poor specimen of Modern Gothic, but which has hearty services and good congregations, has taken a step forward in the direction of internal improvement. Common deal benches have been removed to make way for oaken choir-stalls and prayer-desks. There is also arcaded panelling against the north and south walls of the chancel, and additions to the organ front. Further improvements are in contemplation. [Builder 27 February 1886 page 356]
