Charles Bridges.〔The Anglican Church in the Industrialised Town, St. Mary's Parish, Nottingham 1770-1884 (M. W. Bowen, MA, M Phil, University of Nottingham, October 1997)〕 The foundation stone was laid on the 23 September 1863 by Sydney Pierrepont, 3rd Earl Manvers. The church was consecrated on 26 September 1864. The first incumbent was Henry Jemson Tebbutt. He planned and built the daughter church of St. Andrew's Church, Mansfield Road, which he moved to as first incumbent when it opened in 1870. The second incumbent was James Dawson Lewis, a Cambridge scholar. During his thirty-year incumbency the church was enlarged five times, and the school rooms enlarged fifteen times. He earned the nickname the "running parson" as he ran to meet people in trouble.〔Men of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. R. Mellors. 1924. pp.138-139〕 He opened two daughter churches, St. Jude's Church, Mapperley, and Emmanuel Church, Woodborough Road.
