Parish Church, 1958 by Robert Maguire of Maguire and Murray. Purple Uxbridge
brick and concrete. Centralised rectangular plan with projecting octagonal NW
porch and SE baptistry. Tall cubical windowless nave with large glazed
lantern enclosed on all sides by lower windowless aisle walls with folded
concrete roof with glazed gables and deep projecting eaves. Internally all
walls are carried on concrete piloti, with concrete and brickwork frankly

'corona' suspended from the roof. Cast concrete font.
The vicarage adjoining the church is also of special architectural interest.
