St Ethelwold's Church, Shotton, is an active parish Church in the deanery of Hawarden, the archdeaconry of Wrexham, and the Diocese of St Asaph. It is designated by Cadw as a Grade II listed building..

The church building was paid for partly by W.E. Gladstone but construction was not started until after his death; money was collected largely by his son Rev. Stephen Gladstone. It was built between 1898 and 1902 to a design by Douglas and Minshull of Chester in Gothic Revival style. It was intended that the church should have a tower and a spire, but these architectural features were not included at the time. The lower stage of a tower was added in 1924.

The church was dedicated by A.G. Edwards, Bishop of St Asaph, on 8 August 1902.

The church is built in sandstone ashler both externally and internally. It has a clerestory and a chancel with an apse, the chancel being higher than the nave. At the west end are three small lancet windows with stained glass by Edward Reginald Frampton.
