St Martin's at St Chad's

Adding to the existing wooden building, in 1954, Toy designed this reinforced concrete structure to house a chancel and choir; the existing building was adapted to serve as the nave.

Due to the slope of the site, the addition is two storied – an undercroft has been formed beneath the sanctuary – and Toy's composition of the exterior emphasises the vertical dimension.

Transit New Zealand bought the St Martin's Anglican Church and vicarage on Dominion Road to make way for the new motorway to link Manukau City to the North Western Motorway.

The congregation of the (1961) parish of Mount Roskill moved to St Chad's Anglican Church on Sandringham Road in 2004, and the 1962 church, built to replace a temporary structure erected in 1947, was demolished 2005.
