Roman Catholic Church of St Augustine, Woodborough
Built in 1920-23 in a rather eclectic Romanesque style, Listed Grade II. The original designs show that the two towers either side of the main entrance were intended to be taller with a connecting arch. The flat light when this view was taken means that the white domes, visible in this view, https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4043385 are indistinguishable from the sky, contributing to the rather truncated appearance of the church.
