St Stephen's Church, Bush Hill Park

St Stephen's Church is an Anglican place of worship in Bush Hill Park featuring walls of Stamford stone and Bath stone elements for windows and pillars set in Gothic architectural form. The building contains a nave with similarly proportioned aisles, a distinct chancel, and multiple entrance porches that provide access for visitors and congregants.

The church construction began in 1906 following a temporary iron structure built in 1901, with the main stone building finished by 1916. The transition from temporary to permanent structure reflects the expanding congregation that this area was developing.

The interior features twentieth-century stained glass windows showing biblical scenes, including depictions of St Stephen the Martyr and St Paul the Evangelist. These windows help define the character of the worship space and draw attention to important figures in Christian faith.

The church offers multiple entrance porches that make it easy to find your way inside when visiting. The interior layout with wide aisles alongside the central nave helps with navigation and allows you to move around comfortably throughout the space.

Inside sits a notable three-manual organ from 1908 that the British Institute of Organ Studies recognizes for its historical importance. This instrument represents a surviving example of early twentieth-century organ craftsmanship and draws attention from music enthusiasts.
