Our Lady of Fatima
Our Lady of Fatima Church, Howard Way, Harlow, Essex, CM20 2NS
Our Lady of Fatima church was designed in the Catholic Modernist Movement with a model of the new church exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1956. It is Grade II* listed and is capable of holding 500 parishioners, with potential seating for a further 500 in the porches and has a free standing main altar. About 60% of the building is stained glass windows with the glass set in concrete - the first major use of this technique in England. They depict the story of Fatima, the mysteries of the rosary and the story of the ancestors of Jesus, shown by the Tree of Jesse.
