Holy Family Roman Catholic Church, Platt Bridge
The Parish was founded in 1893, previously having been served as a mission by priests from Saint William's Parish, Ince. The first church, erected in 1895 was second hand brought by canal and then carted-up past the site of the school in Wigan Street and on to Lily Lane by the men of the parish. The tin church was closed on 7th May 1959 and the congregation moved to Holy Family Parochial Hall, Toll Street. The foundation stone for the new Church was laid by the Most Reverend John Carmel Heenan Archbishop of Liverpool on 11th October 1959. It opened on 2nd December 1960. In 2016 the Church was refurbished and modernised.
