Background
Architecture
As the population of the area grew, around 1850 a decision was made to replace the old church, probably at the instigation of William Corbin Finch. The Finch family had bought Fisherton House earlier in that century and operated it as a private lunatic asylum; Finch had been Mayor of Salisbury in 1842–1843. which was consecrated in 1853. A north aisle was added in 1876. The building was designated as Grade II listed in 1972. Flat-roofed church rooms with exteriors of white piers and plate glass were added on the north side in 2009.
