Catholic church of St Augustine, Beehive Hill, Kenilworth
The Catholic church of St Augustine of England was commissioned in 1841 by Maria Louise Amherst, who lived nearby at Fieldgate House. The architect was A W N Pugin, who was famous for reviving the pointed-arch Gothic style through careful study of medieval architecture, in order to use it in the service of the Catholic church. Catholics had only recently been emancipated in Britain and Ireland and the church was emerging from centuries of persecution. Wealthy local patrons such as Amherst played an important part in providing land and funds for church-building.
The very modest church was enlarged in 1849-52 to designs by Herbert Blount, who added the north aisle, visible to the left in this picture, and the bell turret. The Taking Stock site suggests that the change of architect may have resulted from Pugin attempting to court Amherst; she chose to become a nun rather than Mrs Pugin. https://taking-stock.org.uk/building/kennilworth-st-augustine/. The building is Grade II listed.
