Background
History
The parish of St Cross was taken out of the extensive parish of Middleton after the Middleton council housing estate was built in the 1920s and the population in the area increased dramatically. St Mary's Church acquired a site on which to build a mission church and a temporary wooden building was erected in 1925 with funds from the Leeds Church Extension Society. A permanent church was built in 1933 with funding from the diocese.
Architecture
The church was designed in the Early Christian style by F.L.Charlton for the Church Forward Movement. It has a concrete frame and is clad in brick.
