History

Foundation

For a short while during 1862, a priest would come from Ilkeston to celebrate Mass in the Catholic Church in a property in Chandler's Court. In 1876, a Mrs Susanna White bought and then gave the Manor House in Ratcliffe Gate to Bishop Bagshawe. In 1877, St Philip Neri Chapel was opened there. In 1878, a building housing a school and a chapel was built in the grounds of Manor House. It was designed by a Mr Christopher Gray from London. [4]

Construction

In 1921, the priest there, a Fr Charles Payne sought to build the current church. The successor to Bishop Bagshawe, Bishop Brindle gave the land to the parish. On that site, on 6 June 1924, the foundation stone was laid by Bishop Brindle's successor, Thomas Dunn. The church was designed by a local architect, Charles Alva 'Percy' Edeson. On 24 March 1925, the church was consecrated and opened by the Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Bourne, the next day, 25 March, the feast of the Annunciation. In 1926, Fr Payne moved to Derby, his successor Fr John Keogh went about getting the church decorated and installed the paintings. In 1934, the work was completed. It was done by Hardman & Co. and the cost came to £2,000. The total cost of the church came to £17,500. In 1932, the parish hall was built. [4]
