A print to
make your own.
The east end opens out like a fan. Each gable gives the apse its own plane of light, while the tall windows and tiny pinnacles carry the eye towards the bellcote. Brick, pale dressings and slate bring warmth and colour to the geometry.

In my words.
I came to St Mary’s after a difficult start to the day. The church helped turn it around. Outside, its rising forms drew my eyes upwards; inside, sunlight filled the apse as I followed the labyrinth with my eyes. I reached for my camera to hold on to that change of feeling.
This view brings the church’s geometry into focus. The repeated gables frame the windows, each slightly turned towards the next. It is an architecture made to receive the light.
A French idea in a Hampshire village.
Henry Conybeare designed St Mary’s in 1866, drawing on French Gothic architecture and the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris. Here, that ambition takes the form of a polygonal apse, slender tracery and a richly patterned roof.
