St Mary’s Church was built during the mid-1950’s and consecrated in June 1958. The architect was Nugent Cachemaille-Day who was responsible for the design of around 50 other new church buildings in his lifetime. Positioned at the top of Bayswater Road the church is thought to resemble the ark coming to rest on Mount Ararat. The small chapel behind the altar is dedicated to King Charles the Martyr.
