Description
Brown brick with a shutter cast concrete frame and roof structure. Elegantly understated design. West entrance with north church hall and offices, these have a higher floor level but a lower roof-line. The west elevation has a blind wall flanked by strip windows, low pitch gable with gull-wing roof in concrete. The south wall is blind; the chancel is both higher and wider than the nave with windows in the returns and across the roof. The east wall is blind but is canted.The north wall is covered by the single storey hall and offices which have their own large windows. All windows have been replaced by plastic framed ones with some alteration of appearance to the hall.
Painted brick walls, unpainted concrete frame and ceiling. The most dramatic effect is the concealed natural lighting at the east end, comparable to the top-lit interior of the Coychurch Crematorium. Up steps and through wooden screens to the hall on the north side. Polished concrete flag floor. Shuttered concrete font, lectern and altar. Fixed wooden pews with side aisles only. Only the coloured glazing is a significant alteration.
