The first church in Kingston, designed by George Repton, was considered unsatisfactory by the 3rd Lord Eldon, and is now a private dwelling. Lord Eldon commissioned G. E. Street to design the new church, which cost £70,000, a huge amount of money.
The church is designed in the Gothic Revival style, common at the time. The church is now known as 'The Cathedral of the Purbecks' and is still a local landmark today. English Heritage have designated it a Grade I listed building.
