St Mary the Virgin, Brighton, Anglican church in Kemptown, Brighton, England
The red brick church features Gothic revival architecture with a long nave, transepts, and a chancel crowned by a pentagonal apse with lancet windows.
The original church from 1826 collapsed in June 1876, leading to the construction of the current building designed by William Emerson in 1878.
The initial congregation comprised affluent members who established proprietary chapels during Brighton's emergence as a preferred destination for high society.
The church maintains regular services and welcomes visitors interested in exploring its architectural details and historical significance in the Kemptown area.
The building received Grade II* listing status in 1971, recognizing its exceptional architectural elements combining Early English and French Gothic revival styles.
