Spot of history

Holy Trinity Church Tunstead, on Newchurch Road in Stacksteads, Rossendale, was opened in 1840 and the first service took place on November 5th of that year.

In 1999 following the retirement of Revd Eddie Ashworth, the Vicar of St. Saviour's (Revd Stephen Brook) was asked to also take responsibility for Holy Trinity. Following his move to another parish in 2003, Holy Trinity and St. Saviour's churches became part of a team ministry along with St John and Christ Church, Bacup.

Revd Garry Whittaker was appointed Team Rector in 2005, with his main responsibilities being at Holy Trinity Tunstead and St Saviour's Church, Bacup. The Revd David Woodall was appointed Team Vicar in 2006 to cover St John and Christ Church in Bacup.

In October 2007, St Saviour's closed and the majority of the congregation moved to Holy Trinity, forming a new parish named Holy Trinity Tunstead with St Saviour's Bacup.
