Christ Church 1908.
Christ Church is situated where Stockton Rd joins Burdon Rd to become Ryhope Rd. Built in 1864 it was an Anglican church until the 1990s when declared redundant. This magnificent Grade 2 listed building was then acquired by the Sikh Community and adapted as a temple. Renamed as Ashbrooke Hall it is now popular with all faiths. The spire needs costly repairs and final decisions about this have to be made.
