Details of church

Internal photoBuilt: 1870 - 74
Architect: G E Street
Listing: grade 1

The church was designed by G E Street in imitation Decorated Gothic Style and built in the 1870s. After severe war damage it was restored under the direction of H S Goodhart-Rendel and re-opened in September 1958. The spire and tower were repaired in 1994. The general construction is of red brick, but all parapets, window openings, doorways, etc. are dressed with stone. The upper part of the spire is entirely of stone.
