St Raphael's Church, Catholic church in Surbiton, England
The Italianate structure features a central tower, round arched windows, and traditional Doric columns along its Portsmouth Road facade.
Alexander Raphael, the first Catholic sheriff of London since the Reformation, commissioned architect Charles Parker to build this private chapel in 1847.
Inside the church, Minton floor tiles and stained glass windows by Mayer of Munich complement the preserved Victorian architectural elements.
The building contains multiple memorial sites, including the burial vault beneath the high altar where members of the Savile family rest.
The church holds a memorial plaque for Lady Anne Savile, who perished during an attempt to cross the Atlantic by aircraft in 1927.
