The church will seat 400, and on the same floor level area minister's vestry, a church parlour, and two other vestries. The materials of the exterior are local red pressed bricks and grey terra-cotta from Messrs Gibbs and Canning. The contracts amount to about £3,500, including electric lighting and heating. Messrs Potts, Son, and Hennings, of Manchester and Bolton, are the architects. [Building News vol 86 21 October 1904 page 577]
