Our Lady of Loreto and St Winefride's, Kew

The red brick structure features Romanesque Revival elements with prominent semi-circular arches, Doric pilasters, and a barrel-vaulted ceiling throughout the nave.

Alexander Scoles designed this church in 1905, changing the initial Gothic plans to an Italianate style following the request of benefactress Frances Ellis.

The church maintains regular Mass schedules, hosts community gatherings, and operates spiritual programs that support the Roman Catholic parish of Kew Gardens.

Located at 1 Leyborne Park, the church provides online donation options through the Dona platform and broadcasts services through livestream for remote participation.

RAF flying ace Brendan Finucane served as an altar server at this church during his youth before his military career in World War II.
