St Michael and All Angels, Bedford Park

St Michael and All Angels is an Anglican church in Bedford Park, Chiswick, designed by Norman Shaw and consecrated in 1880.
==History==

St Michael and All Angels began as a temporary building on Chiswick High Road opposite Chiswick Lane, some distance from its present site, in 1876. The present church at the corner of Turnham Green Terrace and Bath Road was designed by the architect Norman Shaw. He was the Estate Architect for Bedford Park, designing some of its earliest houses in red brick and white-painted woodwork, known as Queen Anne Revival style.〔 Although this style was considered novel but particularly ecclesiastical by the architect G. E. Street at the time,〔 Shaw decided to use a similar style for the church.〔 The red bricks, as used for Bedford Park houses, were made locally. The architectural writer James Stevens Curl describes the style as "Perpendicular Gothic with seventeenth- and eighteenth-century domestic features".〔〔 cited by Victorian Web.〕 The foundation stone was laid on 31 May 1879. The church was consecrated on 17 April 1880. A churchwarden, the brewer Henry Smith of Chiswick's Fuller Smith & Turner objected in writing to the Bishop of London, raising controversy about the high Anglo-Catholic form of service used in the church. The poet and writer on English architecture John Betjeman called it "a very lovely church and a fine example of Norman Shaw's work."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.smaaa.org.uk/church/history.html ) This is based on 〕 In 1887 Shaw's vision for an additional North aisle was realised.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.victorianweb.org/art/architecture/normanshaw/9.html )〕
The church's roof and stained glass windows were seriously damaged by a Second World War bomb which destroyed the nearby Chiswick Polytechnic. The East Window was filled with new stained glass by Lawrence Lee in 1952. The church's exterior and roof were restored in 1980.〔
