The church was founded in 1873. In 1907 the United Methodist Free Church merged with the Methodist New Connexion and the Bible Christians to form the United Methodist Church which joined with the Wesleyan Methodists and the Primitive Methodists to form the Methodist Church of Great Britain in 1932.
The Methodist Chapel in Lower Darwen held its final service on Sunday 7 January 2001. The Methodist and United Reformed Churches were formally joined and renamed Trinity Church, Lower Darwen at an Inauguration and Signing service on 12 January 2003.
The stained glass windows from the Methodist chapel are now installed in Trinity Church.
