The permanent church was built in 1875 by Henry Edward Coe (1826-85), who had been a pupil of Gilbert Scott.

[12] The reredos depicts the Crucifixion, with the Blessed Virgin and St John at the foot of the Cross.

The ceiling depicts the four archangels (Gabriel, Michael, Raphael and Uriel) and the Holy Spirit as a dove.

[13] Internal decorations were undertaken by Campbell, Smith & Co Ltd.[14] Stained glass is by Christopher Webb and Cachemaile-Day.

From 2012 to 2018 the peripatetic Southwark and District Model Railway Club was located in the church hall.
