ST8132 : Frontage of St Mary's R.C. church, Mere ST8132 : St. Marys R.C. church, Mere ST8132 : St Mary's RC Church, Mere: late August 2016

St Mary's Church was converted after the Second World War from a Nissen hut, and opened for worship in 1946. The architect for the conversion was Alex Frank French of Bristol. Some of the furnishings came from the former Fonthill Abbey in ST9230. Further information and interior views (showing the Fonthill altar) can be found on the Taking Stock website.

In 2024 the church closed and the congregation moved to worship in the ST8132 : Parish Church of St Michael The Archangel - Mere. Planning permission was given for demolition of the building and for seven homes to be built on the site.
