Exterior of St Stephen’s church photographed by Frank Manning prior to the consecration by Bishop Mervyn Stockwood with the Rev. John Carroll in attendance, dated 30th September 1969. The brick structure replaced a large 1861 stone church. An observation after the second church’s remodelling by the Diocese stated, \u201cThe church was built in 1969 in a distinctively modern style by Norman Ashley Green, which (without criticism of its aesthetics or functional efficacy: for the design has many merits) could be categorised as \u201cecclesiastical warehouse\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
