However, in 1890 it was discovered that ivy had caused structural damage and in 1899 the church was demolished, on December 2nd the same year a new church was built by architects Paley and Austin. The rebuilt church is no longer used as a place of worship, and is recorded in the National Heritage list for England as a Grade ll* listed building. |
