The church was designed by Vernon Kinch of Alex Gordon and Partners,[2] and was completed in 1961. it belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran Church of England, and became a grade II listed building in 2007. Aside from some minor changes in joinery and the replacement of the original windows, the church is largely unaltered.[3]
