Background
History
The church was designed by E. W. Pugin and built between 1856 and 1857. In 1927 a marble front was added to the high altar.
Architecture
Inside the church the five-bay arcades are carried on octagonal piers with capitals deeply carved with foliage. There are also arcades between the chancel and the chapels. The south aisle contains confessionals. There are marble altars in the chancel and the chapels, each with a reredos. The reredos in the chancel was designed by Pugin in 1867; it is in richly carved alabaster, and contains statues in niches. In each chapel are three statues in canopied niches. Stretching across the whole church is a continuous marble altar rail. The east window contains stained glass dating from 1925.
