History

The plans for Brentham Garden Suburb did not include a church and so a site was purchased in December 1905 for a tin church,[2] succeeded by a permanent building designed by Ernest Shearman between 1914 and 1916.[3] A fresco by James Clark was added to the eastern apse between 1917 and 1920.[4] A 1920s organ was replaced by one from St Jude's Church, Southsea in 2011.[5]
