St. Andrew (Methodist) on Mosley Street. SD 8793 4662. © Steve Bulman. Interior view, © Mike Berrell (2013). Link. What may have been its Wesleyan predecessor stood immediately to its north on the corner of Mosley Street and Rainhall Road. Only shown as a Chapel on old maps, an old postcard shown here shows the Wesleyan chapel - the building to its left survives on Rainhall Road and can be seen in a Streetview from 2023. SD 8793 4664.

St. Joseph (R.C.) on Gisburn Road. SD 8760 4710. © Steve Bulman. Another view, and two interior views - 1, 2. The dates of the first priest are 1907-1949 (see plaque), but the foundation stone is dated 1928, implying an earlier building. It can be seen on a map from 1909 (R.C. Church), and shows a smaller church than the present one, sited where the more northerly half of the present church stands today. All © Mike Berrell (2013). Link.

St. Mary-le-Ghyll on Ghyll Lane, east of the town. SD 8931 4802. © Philip Kapp. Another view, two interior views - 1, 2, the three-decker pulpit (and the view from it), and the list of vicars, all © Mike Berrell (2013). Link. Grade I listed.

Salvation Army on St. James Square. A Streetview shows it to have still been active (or at least it still has its signage) in 2009. In the next available Streetview of 2022 the signage has gone. SD 877 467. © Rob Brettle.
