St Matthew's Church, Anglican church in Millbrook, Saint Lawrence, Jersey.
St Matthew's Church features substantial glass artwork throughout its interior, including a three-meter-high cross adorned with lilies above the altar.
The church, established in 1840 as a chapel of ease, underwent renovation in 1934 when Florence Boot commissioned its reconstruction in memory of her husband.
The building received designation as a Site of Special Interest in 2008 due to its architectural and artistic elements that represent Jersey's heritage.
The church maintains regular worship services under the Diocese of Salisbury and functions as a gathering space for the local community.
The structure contains the only complete collection of Lalique's heavy clouded glass work, including crystalline angels and an entirely glass-made font.

Jersey features a history that spans from the Neolithic period to World War II. On this Channel Island, visitors can explore Mont Orgueil Castle, a 13th-century fortress overlooking Gorey, and Elizabeth Castle, a 16th-century fort accessible by a causeway covered at high tide. The War Tunnels, a one-kilometer underground network built between 1940 and 1945, illustrate the period of German occupation. La Hougue Bie hosts a 6,000-year-old burial site topped with two medieval chapels. The island also offers natural areas such as Saint-Brelade Beach, maritime collections at the Jersey Museum, and local products available at La Mare Wine Estate or the Anglo-Normandian Islands Distillery. The Jersey Zoo, established in 1959, is dedicated to protecting endangered species over 13 hectares. These sites help understand the island's history, from its earliest inhabitants to maritime activities that have shaped Jersey up to the present.
