Summary Description

This large Victorian Gothic church is firmly embedded within the urban residential fabric of this part of West Kensington, with contemporary terraced housing to the west and post-war blocks of flats to the east, but still manages to make a visual statement due to its sheer mass and its commanding spire. The church was built in 1873-4. The architectural style chosen is an idiosyncratic French Gothic, with mostly the character of the early 13th-century but with features of later styles.

Visiting and Facilities

The church is open for worship.
