Camberley: The Church of St Tarcisius
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 12 Jun 2011
The Church was built between 1923 and 1926 primarily as a memorial to British Catholic army officers who lost their lives in World War I. It was designed by the architect F A Walters, and is a Grade II Listed Building. It was built of Bargate coursed stone rubble with Bath stone dressings and has a tiled roof. St Tarcisius was a martyr of the early Christian church who lived in the 3rd century. He died at the hands of a mob rather than deliver to them the Blessed Sacrament, which he was carrying.
