This is the view down Tynemouth Street towards the Church, although the main entrance is past the tower and around to the left in Stephendale Road. The Church was built in 1922 to the designs of the catholic Priest Fr Benedict Williamson, and was funded by a lady in memory of her son who was killed in 1914 during the First World War. Some of the internal architecture is of an Egyptian style reflecting the contemporary interest in all things Egyptian around that time, when the Tomb of Tutankhamun had just been discovered by Howard Carter.
