Christ Church was built on land donated in 1836 by Robina Andrew of the Green Mount Estate. The foundation stone was laid on 10 July 1837 and the church consecrated on 24 Sept. 1838.
It was assigned a District as Christ Church, Harpurhey cum Moston, by Bishop's Instrument, 14 Feb.1839, confirmed by Order in Council, 8 June 1854 (London Gazette, 16 June 1854), with slight alterations, by Order in Council 24 June (London Gazette, 1 July 1856)
Some of the District was assigned to the new Albert Memorial, Collyhurst, by Order in Council 7 Jan. 1865 (London Gazette, 10 Jan. 1865) and to the new St. Mary's Moston, by Order in Council, 9 Aug. 1870 (London Gazette 12 Aug. 1870).
In 1898 the District was divided and part assigned to the new St. Stephen's, Harpurhey (Order in Council, 9 Aug., London Gazette, 12 Aug. 1898). In 1900 part was assigned to the new Holy Trinity, Blackley (Order in Council, 7 Aug., London Gazette, 14 Aug. 1900).
