Built in 1838 as a single rectangular space, forming a chapel of ease for the parish of Greasley. With the growth of population due to the coal mining industry, the parish of Brinsley was formed in 1861; the chancel was added in 1878. The vestry was formed from the original north porch in 1913 and further enlarged later. Listed Grade II.
