St Augustine's is a
Church of England church in
Kilburn, a northern suburb of London. The red-brick structure was erected in the 1870s, with vaulted ceilings and extensive interior stone sculpturing in a style reminiscent of 13th-century
Gothic architecture. While the church was consecrated in 1880, its tower and spire were not constructed until 1897–98. The
nave is 9 m (30 ft) wide and is decorated with
religious art in various forms depicting major biblical stories. The
stained-glass windows include a large
rose window depicting the
Creation, and others showing angels and saints, while the
chancel and
sanctuary are surrounded by densely carved sculptural forms depicting the
Passion, crucifixion, burial, and resurrection of Christ, and other religious
iconography. St Augustine's is a Grade I
listed building.
