Completed in 1902 on land gifted by Earl Spencer, who owned much of the area. It replaced an iron mission church in nearby Culver Road, serving the late Victorian development known as Sandridge New Town. It was designed by London architect William Woodward and built of bricks fired at a local brickworks (now long gone) on nearby Heath Farm, which happened to be run by the Churchwarden, Jacob Reynolds.
