Services began in about 1870 in an upper room in Clitheroe Rd., Longsight. In May 1880 a Committee was formed to erect a building for Mission and School purposes. A school was built at the junction of Clitheroe Rd. and Hamilton Rd. on land donated by Sir William R. Anson and Sunday Mission Services held there.
In November 1883 a Church Building Committee was formed and the new church of St. Agnes was consecrated on 15 June 1885. A District was assigned, from St. James's, Birch, St. Peter's Levenshulme and St. John's, Longsight, by Order in Council 16 August 1886, (London Gazette, 20 August).
Part of the parish was transferred to the Our Lady and St. Thomas, Gorton, by Order in Council, 24 July 1925, (London Gazette, 28 July). In 1929 by Order in Council, 5 November, (London Gazette, 8 November), part was transferred to St. Margaret's, Burnage, and part received from St. James's Birch.
