It is an active Church of England parish church in the Diocese of Blackburn and the archdeaconry of Lancaster. The church was built in 1770 as a chapel of ease to St Helen's Church in nearby Kirkland and was later assigned its own parish. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building. HistoryHistorically, the township of Garstang was part of the ecclesiastical parish of the same name. Garstang's parish church was St Helen's Church, approximately {{Convert|2|mi|km|0}} away in the township of Kirkland. A chapel of ease to St Helen's was built in the township of Garstang in the 15th century.[1] The chapel was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. By the 18th century, this chapel had fallen into disuse.[2] In 1770, a new chapel was built on a different site in the town and dedicated to Saint Thomas; the architect was Richard Gillow.[1] In 1879, a chancel was added to the church, probably by Lancaster-based architecture firm Paley and Austin.{{#tag:ref|Although Price (1998) lists St Thomas' as one of Paley & Austin's works,[4] Hartwell & Pevsner (2009) mention only a chancel added in 1875 by Longworth & Gardner.[1]|group=n}} In 1881, St Thomas' became a parish church in its own right.[2] Around this time, the churchyard was enlarged.[7] ArchitectureSt Thomas' Church is built of sandstone rubble and its roofs are slate. The plan consists of a nave with a tower to the west, a chancel and a transept to the north.[8] The tower is square with extensions to the north and south. It has round-headed bell openings.[1] The three-light east window contains a stained glass image of Saint Thomas, designed by Carl Almquist of the Lancaster-based firm Shrigley & Hunt.[1] There is also a depiction of the Ascension of Jesus by the same firm.[11] There is a bronze sculpture of Christ in the chancel, designed in 1974 by Josefina de Vasconcellos.[1] External featuresIn the churchyard, there are the remains of a medieval sandstone cross. It has a rectangular base and shaft.[13] The churchyard also contains the war graves of a British and an Australian soldier of World War I.[1] Assessment and administrationSt Thomas' was designated as a Grade II listed building on 17 April 1967.[8] The sandstone cross base and shaft in the churchyard have also received a Grade II designation.[13] The Grade II designation—the lowest of the three grades—is for buildings that are "nationally important and of special interest".[17] Hartwell and Pevsner (2009) describe the church as a "cheap uninspired job".[1] St Thomas' is an active parish church in the Anglican Diocese of Blackburn, which is part of the Province of York. It is in the archdeaconry of Lancaster and the Deanery of Garstang.[19] See also{{portal|Lancashire}}
