St Alban's Church, Acton Green, Gothic Revival church in Acton Green, United Kingdom.

Description

St Alban's Church is a Gothic Revival church in Acton Green characterized by red brick walls with blue brick banding and stone detailing throughout. The building features a steeply pitched nave roof leading to a circular chancel, with side aisles running alongside the main worship space and a north chapel extending from the structure.

History

The foundation stone was laid in 1887 and construction was supported by a grant from a charitable organization in 1888. A north chapel was added in 1908 to provide additional space as the parish continued to grow.

Culture

The building is named after an early Christian saint and continues to serve the local community as a gathering place with multiple purposes. Its spaces function differently depending on the time of day, hosting both religious services and educational activities.

Practical

The building functions as a kindergarten during weekdays while continuing to host religious services for the parish on other occasions. Access and opening times may vary depending on the use, so checking ahead before visiting is helpful.
