Cathedral Church of St Michael and St George

Cathedral Church of St Michael and St George serves as the Roman Catholic cathedral for the Bishopric of the Forces. The church was designed in 1892 by two military engineers and, because the building was originally intended as the principal church for the Anglican chaplaincies of the British Army,
the foundation stone was laid by Queen Victoria.
The trowel she used in the ceremony is exhibited in the cathedral’s
west porch.
However, the church was subsequently not required for this purpose and
it eventually became the seat of the Roman Catholic Bishop of the Forces instead.

St Bartholomew Church Wanborough
A church of Saxon origin mentioned in Domesday, rebuilt in the 12th Century
Parish Church of St. Bartholomew, Wanborough, Surrey
This village church is one of the smallest in Surrey, measuring only
13.5 m by 5.5 m internally. It is of Saxon origin with Domesday Survey
evidence of a church existing during the reign of Edward the Confessor
It was originally built around 1060 replacing an earlier wooden Saxon church.
The present church being a 13th Century reconstruction by the monks of Waverley Abbey
and a later restoration of 1861.
Thus the various walls and windows have significantly different heritage.
The Victorian west brick wall now supports an external bell.
