Description
The Church of St Paul is a parish church built in 1958 by Robert Maguire of Maguire and Murray. It features purple Uxbridge brick and concrete, with a centralised rectangular plan that includes a projecting octagonal northwest porch and a southeast baptistry. The tall, cubical nave is windowless and topped with a large glazed lantern, surrounded by lower windowless aisle walls. The roof is made of folded concrete with glazed gables and deep projecting eaves. Inside, all walls are supported by concrete piloti, showcasing the concrete and brickwork. The sanctuary area around the centralised altar is marked by a steel 'corona' suspended from the roof, and there is a cast concrete font. The adjoining vicarage is also of special architectural interest.
