St Anne's Church is a Grade II listed building in Chapeltown, Turton, in the Borough of Blackburn with Darwen, Lancashire, England. It is an active Church of England parish church in the Diocese of Manchester and is part of the Deanery of Walmsley and Archdeaconry of Bolton.

The present parish church was built between 1840 and 1841, [1] the architect was probably John Palmer. [2] The ecclesiastical parish was formed in 1837.
The church, designed by John Palmer in Decorated style, is in sandstone with a slate roof. It consists of a nave with aisles, a short chancel, and a west steeple. The steeple has a four-stage tower, angle buttresses, a west door and west window, clock faces, an embattled parapet with pinnacles, and an octagonal spire with two tiers of lucarnes. [3] [4]
John Palmer was an English architect who practised in Manchester. He was buried in the graveyard of St. Augustine's Chapel, which he had designed.
