Formerly St George’s Presbyterian Church, this beautiful building was completed in 1901, the architect was George Herbert Gray. The flint-faced church has a central turret and is attached to the former manse which has a prominent half-timbered gable. The large front lawn is key to its setting.

George Herbert Gray (1856-1929) was articled to Edward Burgess and moved from London to Bexhill-on-Sea in the 1880s where he established his own practice. He was appointed architect and surveyor to Earl de la Warr’s Bexhill and Cooden estates in 1889 and became Mayor of Bexhill in 1918-19.
