Church Micro 10812...Hythe - St Johns
Another addition to this series and one that we are resuscitating.
Until 1823 Anglican worshippers in Hythe had to travel to either the church in Fawley or to the church in Dibden. In 1823 a small chapel (seating 250) was built to serve the local congregation, but as the population increased, a larger building was needed, and the present one was built in 1874.
Accessed from St. John’s Street, it became a parish in its own right in 1841. The first curate was the Rev the Honourable Augustus Irby. The chapel was really too small for the whole of the new parish and at the first opportunity a new church was built to the rear of the old chapel but now facing into New Road and was consecrated in 1874, the church still provides an impressive backdrop as you enter the village.
