Description

The Church of St Barnabas is an Anglican church built between 1914 and 1916 by architect Ernest Charles Shearman. It features purple-brown bricks with yellow limestone dressings and a tiled roof. The church has a plan that includes a nave with five bays, transepts, and an apsidal chancel, which has a Lady Chapel rebuilt in 1987 and a rose window to the east. There are unfinished towers at the west end, and the entrance porch is located within the south-west tower, featuring double doors topped by a statue of Christ within a gable, designed by Shearman and added in 1926. The north nave wall is largely faced with Fletton brick.

Inside, the tall chancel has an open timber roof and is decorated with a large painting in spirit fresco on canvas depicting the Adoration of the Holy Ghost by James Clark, created between 1917 and 1920. The sanctuary steps are paved with grey marble, which has been recently extended. The broad nave features an arch-braced roof and aisles set behind double arches of brick. At the west end, there is a large organ gallery beneath a large rose window with flowing tracery. The nave and sanctuary are adorned with stained glass windows by Clayton and Bell.

St Barnabas is recognized as one of Shearman's distinctive large-scale brick churches, with the first of three similar designs in West London, the prototype being St Silas the Martyr, built between 1911 and 1912.
