Church Of St Stephen

The Church of St Stephen is a church built between 1867 and 1875 by Banks and Barry, located in Southwark. It is constructed from ragstone with ashlar dressings and features a slate roof in an Early English style. The building has a rectangular plan with an apsidal chancel that faces south-east, which is narrower and lower than the nave. There are aisles with a lean-to roof and a tower located on the north-east elevation, positioned two bays from the west end. The church includes a gabled porch on the north-east side and a one-storey extension on the south-east side.

The exterior features a Perpendicular tower with four stages and corner buttresses. Above the moulded round-arched entrance, there is a blank, three-arched arcade. Each face of the third stage has a single lancet, while the fourth stage has a large louvred bell opening with a moulded surround. The tower is topped with a broach spire. The west window is large and traceried, and the aisles have groups of three lancets with trefoil tracery set between stepped buttresses, along with a gabled clerestory.

Inside, there is a painting by Sir E. Poynter depicting the trial and stoning of St Stephen, created in 1872. The stained-glass windows were made by Kempe, with additional windows at the west end by M. Forsyth from 1952.
