Synopsis

Excerpt from The Home Counties Magazine, Vol. 14: Devoted to the Topography of London, Middlesex, Essex, Herts, Bucks, Surrey, Kent, and Sussex

The principal buildings are the church, erected in 1880, of which I shall speak later on, the National Schools, built in 1873, the Parish Hall and Workmen's Club, and the rectory. The latter is a picturesque, half-timbered building of the Tudor period to it was added by the Rev. Jervis T. Giffard (who preceded the late Mr. Hughes in the living) a wing, the architecture of which does not harmonize with the main structure.

The living is a rectory in the Rural Deanery of Kingston, with a rent charge, and about fifteen acres of glebe, and is in the gift of Mr. Thomas B. Hughes, the brother of the late Rector.

Ecclesiastically the parish has had a remarkable experience: originally in the diocese of Winchester, it was transferred years ago to Rochester, and is now in Southwark.
