Page "St. Mary's Church, Putney" Paragraph 1

The building itself has seen many changes ; parts of the existing church have survived from medieval times, such as the 15th century tower and some of the nave arcading, and the early 16th century Bishop West Chapel, built by Bishop Nicholas West.

Most of the building, however, dates from the substantial reconstruction of 1836 to the designs of Edward Lapidge.

He largely rebuilt the body of the church in yellow brick with stone dressings and perpendicular windows.

Some of the medieval pillars and arches in the nave were retained, but both the north and the south arcades were widened.
