Holy Trinity Richmond is an Anglican parish church in Sheen Park, Richmond, London.

History

The church, an example of Gothic Revival architecture,[1] was built in 1870; the architect was Raphael Brandon.[2] A tower by Charles Lock Luck (1833/34–90), dating from 1880, was removed in about 1970[2] for safety reasons.[1]

A 1950s-vintage meeting room complex south-east of the church was replaced in 1992.[1]

Services and activities

The church holds services, with songs and modern music, on Sunday mornings. Programmes for children and teenagers are also offered.[3]

A midweek service is held on Wednesday mornings.[4]

Collide, the Church's group for 11- to 18-year-olds, meets on Saturday evenings.[5] Glow, a club for children in school years 4, 5 and 6, is run fortnightly on Friday evenings during term time.[6] Age-related children's groups are also held on Sunday mornings.[7]

A weekly women's group, Oasis, meets on Friday mornings.[8]

Holy Trinity Richmond’s football team plays in Division 3 of the Southern Area Christian Football League (SACFL).[9]
