St Mary´s Church, Brighton
http://www.stmaryschurchbrighton.org.uk
St Mary´s Church is one of Brighton’s architectural glories. Affectionately known as the ‘Cathedral of Kemp Town’, it was built in 1876-8 to designs by Sir William Emerson, architect of the Victoria Memorial in Calcutta (Kolkata). The modest brick exterior hides an interior of surprising volume and warmth, which reflects Emerson’s training under William Burges, the great Gothic Revivalist, but also the Indo-Islamic and Classical influences of a career spent largely in India, where he became an exponent of architectural hybridity.
The church has a fine Bevington pipe organ, which is used for recitals well as Sunday worship. The church
regularly hosts other concerts, along with theatrical performances, public meetings, and fashion shoots.
