CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Christ Church in West Green has its origins in services held in Willow Walk School from 1882, to spare residents the difficult journey to Saint Ann's Church on Hanger Lane (now St Ann's Road). In 1884 a temporary church was erected until 1888 when the permanent church building was consecrated. A parish hall was opened in 1893.
