...... In 1874 a new organ chamber and vestry were added and an organ, originally built by Bishop for St. Peter’s, Eaton Square, was purchased by the Vicar for the sum of £150. Two years later the Chancel was enlarged, and by prefabricating the masonry, the work was completed within five weeks from the start of demolition. “The chancel which is too small will be lengthened eight feet, additional seats provided for the choir by the new choir stalls, the whole of the chancel will be repaved with tiles of choice design, the late east window will be removed to the west end of the church and a new beautifully stained window by Baily of London, of three divisions (one the gift of G. T. Ewens, chapel warden) will take its place. The alterations are again from the designs of the architect of the church, W. Wigginton. The estimated cost is £700 exclusive of the window, of which the Rev. F. J. Fitz Wygram has donated £400.”
.......The church has been richly endowed with stained glass given in memory of men and women whose untiring efforts brought so many benefits to the parish. The memorial window to the Rev. F. J. Fitz Wygram, “The Transfiguration,” for which £500 was collected by public subscription, is at the west end of the church above the porch which was also built in his memory. On the south aisle are a series of handsome windows based on the Parables, also given in memory of the first vicar by his wife and her mother, Lady Ward. The choice of the parables “The Sower and the Seed,” “The Good Shepherd” and “The Good Samaritan” is a particularly apt memorial to the man and his work. The great East Window represents the Ascension, flanked by representations of the Nativity and the Visit of the Magi. The central light was given by Mr. G. T. Ewens, churchwarden,
