Christchurch, Forestside

Christchurch Forestside, together with the adjacent school and teacher's house (now private houses) was built in 1856 by the widow of Charles Dixon, a wealthy Victorian philanthropist and the owner of the nearby Stansted House. It is a Victorian building of flint masonry with Caen stone dressings. The East window is a Jesse Window with an unusual dragon in the bottom right hand corner, whose origin is unknown. The heads on the chancel arch are a young Queen Victoria and the Bishop of Chichester.

Services are held on two Sundays a month.
