The church has been active since 1946, when Pastor Alf Webb invited people to services in a room above Stevensons Electrical Supplies in Denton. It wasn't until 1948 that building work was commenced at a site on Seymour Street. In September 1950 Carmel Denton was opened and Pastor Durham became the new pastor. In 1959 a smaller hall was built next to the main building. Mr and Mrs Alf Slater began attending the church. In 1960 Alf was made an elder and remained one until 2005. In 1977 an extension to the main building was opened with joined the main building to the smaller hall. In 1985 the name was changed to Carmel Christian Centre and in 1987 Jim and Jackie Bowler took over as joint leaders of the church. They remained leaders until their retirement in June 2006, when the leadership was passed over to Mark Thomas. Church website: http://www.carmelcc.org.uk/
