St Bartholomew’s church Marsden is situated at the head of the
Colne valley, lying in the picturesque hilly moorland and
pastures of the south Pennines, on the borders of West
Yorkshire and Lancashire.

The building of the present church is mainly due to the efforts of
the Rev Buller. The architect was William Henry Crossland, who
had been a pupil of Sir George Gilbert Scott. Two of Crossland’s
most notable buildings are Rochdale Town Hall (1871) and the
Founders Building at Royal Holloway College, Surrey (1888).
Crossland drew up the plans for the church in 1865, yet it
wasn’t until the 1890’s that work on the building commenced,
under the guidance of architect Hodgson Fowler of Durham. The
cost of the church was £10,000 and seated an impressive 800.
The nave and side aisles were completed in 1895, the chancel
and Lady Chapel in 1899, and finally the tower and Baptistery
were added in 1911.
