Summary Description

This church, built in 1982, replaces a historic church on a different site that was demolished. The present church has been grafted onto a very large community hall that dates from the 1920’s. The church and hall function as one entity with the church having access to vestry and toilets located within the hall, however they do have separate heating systems. On occasions when the church may need extra space a series of doors may be opened to access an adjacent space in the hall. Various elements of furnishings from the earlier church have been incorporated within the 1980 design, notably the pulpit. These elements seem to sit uncomfortably within a modern design. The modern altar rail and supporting ironwork is simple and of quality as is the frame supporting the organ over the entrance doors. The particular significance of this church is the very successful integration with the existing and reasonably well used community hall.
