The dedication of McDonough and Robins's 1965 modernist church recalls the ancient chantry chapel of St Gregory in Meads, first documented in 1239 and now lost.
The yellow brick and concrete building, with a prominent circular baptistery of glass and flint, cost £43,000 and replaced the adjacent timber hut. It had been used for Masses since 1934. English Heritage called the church a "bold modern design"!!
