Church of the Most Precious Blood, Roman Catholic church in Southwark, England
The Church of the Most Precious Blood features a presbytery, forecourt walls, and a shrine dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes made from Sicilian marble.
The parish was established in 1891 by Bishop John Baptist Butt following a £10,000 bequest, with architect Frederick Walters completing construction for £7,000.
The interior contains terracotta Stations of the Cross created by Swiss artist Matthias Zens and two bells from the Whitechapel Bell Foundry installed in 1956.
The church, located at 22 Redcross Way in London SE1 1TA, operates under the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham since 2013.
The exterior shrine features a niche lined with Norfolk flint, combining materials from different regions to create a distinctive architectural element.
