St Andrew's Church, Grade II listed church building in Surbiton, England
St Andrew's Church is a brick building from the Victorian era located at the corner of St Andrew's Road and Maple Road in Surbiton. The interior features multiple aisles, wooden furnishings, and decorative glass windows that fill the space with colored light.
The church was designed and built in the early 1870s by a prominent Victorian architect with generous support from a wealthy banking family. A tower was added later in the early 1900s, funded through community donations made to honor a historical royal event.
The stained glass windows inside display religious figures and biblical narratives created by skilled craftspeople from the Victorian period. These works of glass art shape how light and meaning move through the interior space throughout the day.
The church is easily accessible by public transit and sits within a residential neighborhood with parking available nearby. Visitors can drop in to see the interior during opening hours and may find community events taking place on weekends.
A tower was added to commemorate a significant health recovery involving the royal family, showing how the community participated in major national moments. The donations for this addition came directly from local residents eager to show their thanks.
