Description

The Church of Holy Angels is a late 19th-century building, constructed between 1872 and 1878. Designed by G. F. Bodley, it is considered one of his best works and was built by Mrs H. F. Meynell Ingram to commemorate her husband, Hugo Francis Meynell Ingram. The church is built of stone and exhibits a combination of Gothic Decorated and Perpendicular styles. It includes a nave, a central tower, transepts, and a chancel. A Lady Chapel was added in 1891, and a narthex in 1900. The interior is richly furnished, with designs by Bodley, and features table tomb monuments dedicated to Hugo Meynell Ingram and his wife.
