It was built in 1839 as a chapel of ease to St Oswald's in Malpas, because the local population was growing quickly. The architect was Edmund Sharpe from Lancaster, who was well known for his Gothic Revival churches. The land was donated by Sir Philip Grey Egerton of Oulton, and the money was raised by public subscription. Around £2,000 was collected in total, but only £700 of that was spent on building the church itself. Another £300 went towards a house for the minister, and the rest was invested to provide an income for him. The church also received a grant of £120 from the Incorporated Church Building Society. It was consecrated on the 7th of January 1840 by John Sumner, the Bishop of Chester, and it became a separate parish church in its own right in 1869. It is Grade II listed and is still an active parish church. In the churchyard, overlooking the crossroads, there is a war memorial.

A good Christian welcome of the Sermon on the Mount sort - tea, coffee and milk offered for anyone who drops in 😊. Make it yourself and place a donation in the offering box. And a toilet round the back 😊! Church blesses the community 😊👏👏. Well done and thank you!

Lovely old cobbled bridge leading into the pretty Village.

Hanmer is home to one of the nine Meres in this part of the world and it is a beautiful tranquil place. Having the bulk of St Chad's church looking down over the whole scene just adds to the ambience of the whole place.

The royal oak is a good riverside pub to stop at next to Bangor bridge with a lovely view of the Dee. Generally open from noon to 10pm but closed earlier on a Sunday, not open Monday or Tuesday.
