About our Church
A traditional village Church that has been overtaken by suburbia as Darwen has grown in recent years. Originally serving the community of Sough (a name derived from the spoil from a mine or, in this case, the digging of a railway tunnel) the community has changed its name in recent years to the more attractive Spring Vale.
After suffering serious dry rot some fifteen years ago the congregation, largely through their own efforts, rebuilt the Church, retaining just the existing walls. The result is an attractive, adaptable Church building with ample space. The community makes good use of the building, using it for all kinds of activities, such as NHS clinics, elections, line dancing, and drama. The Church itself also makes good use of this space for youth and children’s work.
The congregation, though smallish, includes a wide age range and a number of children. The building is also hired out for children's birthday parties some weekends.
