St Stephen's Church - Physical Description 1
A red brick and stuccoed Arts and Crafts influenced inter-war church, symmetrical and cruciform on plan with pillared and gable roofed porches flanking the facade. The facade skilfully combines the elements of a cross, in cement, buttresses and tall thin windows into an integrated composition, enriched by Gothic ornamentation but eschewing conventional forms. The picturesque and flared roofs have terra cotta shingles whilst the sides of the nave use more stereotyped Gothic enrichment.
Inside, the timber lined ceiling is a noteworthy element.St Stephen's Church - Physical Description 2
