In the east of the town, stands this large red brick church of 1905 designed by C.H. and N.A. Rew. A picture in the church shows the ambitious plans for twin west towers that was never executed. In 1975-80 the church became shared with the Methodists, a formal Anglican/Methodist partnership being established in 1993 . In 1975 its orientation was reversed when the two western bays were converted to a hall and a new western wall built to designs by Percy Mark. The old chancel in the apse became a lady chapel in 2005. The font comes from St Peter’s and dates from 1662.
