The church was formerly St John's Methodist, opened in 1879 and noted in the Grade II listing (list entry 1132919) as "one of the first [Methodist churches] built in Bradford to rival the Church of England Gothic." Now dedicated to the Holy Trinity and Our Lady of Pochaiv (a town that Wikipedia says contains the second largest Eastern Orthodox monastery in Ukraine). There is an English-speaking Catholic church nearby, but presumably there were reasons the Ukrainians didn't want to join them.
