The earliest record of St Paul’s church (then known as Little Marsden Chapel) dates from 1296 although it is thought that a chantry chapel must have existed at Little Marsden before that date. In practice St Paul’s became the Parish Church of Little Marsden in 1811, although not legally recognised as such until 1877. The Revd. John Hutchinson had been curate since 1809 and he was appointed vicar in 1813, a position he held until 1851. Several alterations were carried out to the church in the second half of the nineteenth century.
