Designed by William Henry Randoll Blacking (a pupil of Sir J Ninian Comper) and built by Edward Godwin and Sons, the first part, consisting of the chancel and the two east bays of the nave, completed in 1933 and consecrated the year later. Blacking planned a further three bays of the nave and a north west tower, but when construction was resumed in 1960 it was to a revised design by Hugh Hubbard Ford which was completed in 1963. He added only two more bays, resembling the earlier ones, with a west gallery. In place of the tower is a large two-storeyed porch with a cross-gable. | Designed by William Henry Randoll Blacking (a pupil of Sir J Ninian Comper) and built by Edward Godwin and Sons, the first part, consisting of the chancel and the two east bays of the nave, completed in 1933 and consecrated the year later.
