Holy Trinity Richmond is a church in Richmond, Surrey, England. It is part of the Anglican Church. This church is a place where people gather for worship and community activities. It has been an important part of the Richmond area for many years.
A Look Back: The Church's History
The church building was finished in 1870. It was designed by an architect named Raphael Brandon. The church was built in a style called Gothic Revival. This style looks like the old Gothic churches from hundreds of years ago.
A tall tower was added in 1880. It was designed by Charles Lock Luck. However, the tower was taken down around 1970. This was done for safety reasons. In 1992, a new meeting room complex was built. It replaced an older one from the 1950s.
