The Church
The interior of Christ Church has developed and changed over the years. The church was only completed sufficiently for occupation in 1845. The interior was, and is, a work in progress. Numerous architects have contributed to this process, most notably, Edmund Blacket in the period 1844-1880 and John Burcham Clamp in the period 1900-1922.
The ceiling was added and the columns clad in 1864. The stained glass was added gradually in the period 1845-1912. The Marble steps were added to the sanctuary in 1885 and extended in 1929. The church was extensively renovated following the fire in 1905. The chancel was added in 1885 and renewed and expanded in 2004.
