Description

The Church of St Mary, built between 1775 and 1777 by Joseph Dixon, is a Grade I listed building located on Battersea Church Road. It features a brown brick construction with stone quoins and other decorative elements. The church has a tetrastyle Doric porch and a west tower topped with a cyma-bracketed cornice, which supports urn finials at the corners and an octagonal wooden steeple. The windows are set back within gauged brick arches, with segmental heads at the aisle level and round arches at the gallery.

Inside, the church has a flat ceiling with a cove above the cornice. A gallery runs along three sides, featuring a panelled front that is cantilevered on shaped brackets above wooden Doric-type columns. The east window, dating from 1631, is made of stained and enamelled glass attributed to Bernard van Linge and is of exceptional quality, having been transferred in its entirety from an older church.

The churchyard is enclosed by red and brown brick retaining walls along the riverside, and there are ornamental wrought iron gates, including one double gate and two single gates, located to the south and east of the churchyard.
