Interior of St Margaret's Church, South Wonston
The principal room is semicircular with the altar at its centre. See also
Image This room is also used as an assembly hall by South Wonston Primary School, and the seating is stored around the periphery so that the children can sit on the floor. For church services, the seating is arranged in two blocks facing the altar with an aisle between. 80-100 seats can be accommodated.
There is a smaller chapel through the far door in the centre of the picture, see

St Margaret's Church, Downs Road, South Wonston
South Wonston Primary School (http://southwonston.hants.sch.uk/ ) and St Margaret's Church (http://www.southwonston-church.co.uk/index.html ) share the site and the church (right), which was built in 1996, is joined to the school buildings (left). The church occupies a narrow site within the row of residential houses along Downs Road. The church was partly sunken to meet objections about its height from neighbours. The tower-like structure sadly lacks a spire or other feature to top it off. The rectangular hole in the masonry at the top left of the tower, which I first thought might contain a bell, in fact contains a TV aerial.
This southeastern side of the church is only visible from the grounds of the school which are not open to the public. Access for this photograph by kind permission of St Margaret's.
