DescriptionThe Parish of Northfields was founded in 1926. A substantial church was planned and partially built in the interwar period, but not completed until 1959, when it was consecrated on 29th October that year.
The first phase of the church was planned in 1930 and built in 1931, consisting of the sanctuary, transepts and eastern bay of the nave. The architect was T.H. Birchall Scott, one of the most prolific architects working in the archdiocese at the time.The rest, giving accommodation for 500 people, was completed later from his designs. The presbytery was designed in 1939 (designed by the Scotts, father and son).The church was reordered in the late 1980s by George Mathers. In 2010 the church was fitted with new stained glass in several of the windows, from designs by the local artist Sophie D’Souza.
