The origins of a church community in Freemantle begin in 1856, when a church meeting took place in the Bailiffs House, and then later church services took place in the school rooms. [3] On 25 July 1861, the foundation stone of the church was laid by Archdeacon Jacob. [3] The building was constructed of Purbeck rubble and ashlar during 1865-1866 by William White. [4] The windows were moulded with red brick. [4] On 27 July 1865 the church was consecrated by Dr Sumner, Bishop of Winchester. [3] On 19 April 1866 the Ecclesiastical Commission of England agreed that Freemantle would be a separate district from Millbrook, and declared the new Church of the Parish of Christ Church, Freemantle. [3] The tower and spire were added in 1875. [3]
The main building is of Purbeck rubble and ashlar construction, with red brick mouldings around the windows.

[4] The tower, on the west of the building, has a broached spire [4] which was added a decade after the construction of the remainder of the building. [3] The chancel arch is wide, with three bay nave arcades. [4] The windows are of a geometrical style. [4]
