St Martin-on-the-Hill

The church was built between 1862 and 1863 to designs by the architect George Frederick Bodley. It comprises a north tower, saddleback roof, nave with clerestory, aisle and chancel. The west end contains a rose window.

Much of the decoration and stained glass was completed by Morris & Co., some of the earliest work completed by this firm. The ceiling decoration of the chancel is by William Morris and Philip Webb. The altar wall displays the Adoration of the Magi by Edward Burne-Jones. The reredos and rood-screen date from 1889, a later addition by George Frederick Bodley; the artist was Charles Edgar Buckeridge. The paintings on the Bodley organ case were done by John Roddam Spencer Stanhope.
