St Cuthbert's is a church on Philbeach Gardens in Earls Court, built in red brick with stone decoration and listed as a Grade I building in England. The interior has a high nave lined with polished marble pillars, giving the space a tall, open quality.
The church was designed by architect Hugh Roumieu Gough and built between 1884 and 1887. Its roof was damaged by bombing during the Second World War and repaired in the 1990s.
The interior of St Cuthbert's is filled with handmade details created by parishioners over the decades, including needlework and stone carvings. Walking through the nave, visitors can see how personal contributions from the local community have shaped the space over time.
The church sits on a residential street and is within easy walking distance of Earl's Court tube station. It is worth checking in advance whether a service or event is taking place on the day you plan to visit, as access may vary.
William Bainbridge Reynolds, a craftsman who worked on many churches across England, made a wrought iron lectern for this church in 1897 decorated with religious motifs. It is one of several metal pieces he produced for the building, most of which are still in place today.
