Christ Church is the parish church for Rossett with Holt & Isycoed, within the diocese of St Asaph, part of the Church in Wales. It sits alongside the old Chester road in the village of Rossett Wrexham, North Wales. The church originated in 1841 following the formation of the Parish of Rossett out of Gresford Parish, but was replaced in 1892 by today's building. Within the church there are several fine examples of stained glass of the period. Two windows are accredited to the artist Kemp, and one to the Pre Raphaelite artist Burne Jones. The reredos features five oak panels depicting Christ and six angels, and is of coloured alabaster and abalone. The hexagonal carved oak pulpit survives from the original church, as does the font in the church grounds.
