Christ Church, Upper Tean is within the Uttoxeter Area of Parishes and in the Diocese of Lichfield. The church was built in 1843 and designed by Thomas Johnson of Lichfield who also designed Heath House nearby. The village grew up around the tape mill on the high street and many of the workers would have attended the church. During WWII the mill was one of the few that provided tape for parachutes.
