ST MICHAELS CHURCH

This photograph, from St Michaels Place, shows the building of the new church about to commence. After some 30 years the enlargement of the original church became necessary, but Mr Bodley did not wish to undertake the work. Mr William Burges designed the new church, which was begun in 1893 and opened in 1895. It took the form of a new nave, north aisle and chancel, to which the original building serves as south aisle and chapel. The addition of the “new church” involved the destruction of Mr Bodley’s north aisle.
