    This modern-looking building is a Roman Catholic church, designed and built by JH & WC Mangan in 1925-1926 in a Lombardic style, with additions and alterations of 1970 and about 1990.

    The foundation stone was laid on 18 October 1925 and the church was opened in September of 1926, having cost £12,000.

    The Church is listed at Grade II principally for reasons of Architectural (the church is an accomplished design by the noted church architect Wilfred Mangan, which uses early-Christian architecture with confidence) and Historic interest (the church is a good example of its form of plan, which moved the choir to a generous western gallery and cleared views towards the eastern altar, anticipating the findings of the Second Vatican Council).
