St Mary's Church, Itchen Stoke, Gothic Revival church in Itchen Stoke, England.

St Mary's Church features brown and grey rubble stone walls with limestone details and a steep roof covered in purple and grey-green diamond-patterned slates.

Built in 1866 under architect Henry Conybeare's guidance to replace two previous churches, the first dating from 1270 and the second proving unsuitable due to dampness.

The interior contains intricate stained glass windows, cast iron scrollwork on the pulpit, and a chancel floor with glazed tiles arranged in a labyrinth pattern.

Located off the B3047, the church requires climbing a steep grass slope to access, and visitors should note there is no electricity or running water.

The church design draws direct inspiration from Paris's Sainte Chapelle, incorporating similar architectural elements and window arrangements throughout the structure.
