It is an active Anglican parish church and part of the Armley deanery in the archdeaconry of Leeds and the diocese of Ripon and Leeds. The church and its lych gate are Grade II listed buildings. In 1494, a chantry chapel dedicated to St Mary the Virgin was endowed by Gilbert Leygh in Middleton; this was closed at the time of the Reformation. Middleton was part of the parish of Rothwell. In 1845, R.H. Brandling of Middleton Lodge gave land on Town Street on which to build a church and parsonage. The Brandlings were the owners of the Middleton collieries and built the Middleton Railway. The Incorporated Society for promoting the Enlargement, Building and Repairing of Churches and Chapels made a grant of 350 towards the cost of building the church, on condition that all the seats were declared free and public subscriptions raised over 1,000.
