An early work of the architect Arthur Blomfield,[3] the church building, which is in stone, was erected between 1862 and 1864.[4] It was built on farmland at the entrance of East Sheen Common. It was originally planned to be opened in April 1863; however, the tower collapsed shortly before completion and had to be rebuilt. The church was finally completed and consecrated nine months later, on 13 January 1864.[5]
