St Francis Xavier Church, Hereford, Neoclassical Roman Catholic church in Hereford, United Kingdom

The exterior structure incorporates stucco columns with a dome at the rear, while two fluted Doric columns frame the main entrance of the building.

The foundation stone ceremony in 1837 received recognition from Queen Victoria, who dispatched her personal representative to attend this significant occasion.

The church maintains the hand of Saint John Kemble, executed in 1679, who received beatification in 1929 and canonization by Pope Paul VI in 1970.

Religious services occur on Saturdays at 6:00 PM and Sundays at 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM, with Traditional Latin Mass on the last Sunday monthly at 12:15 PM.

The initial construction in 1839 proceeded without windows due to concerns regarding potential vandalism during that period in British history.
