NEW CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, HALIFAX -  A new church is about to be commenced on a plot of land near the People's Park, above the new residence of Sir Francis Crossley, bart. A limited competition took place between Messrs Paull & Ayliffe, of Manchester; Messrs Pritchett & Son, of Darlington; Mr. James, of London; and a local architect. The design selected was that sent by Mr. Joseph James, the architect of Square Church, Halifax, erected seven years ago, and a view of which appeared in a former volume of the Builder.
