St Saviour's, Walmer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
St Saviour's is a church on the seafront of Walmer, Kent, United Kingdom. It is dedicated to no saint, but to the Holy Saviour (ie to Christ directly). It built in 1848, at the same time as the Lifeboat House opposite it and in the same Neo-Gothic architectural style, as a chapel of ease for the town's boatmen (who, in the days of sail, took supplies out to vessels in the Downs) and to take the pressure off Old St Mary's (previously the parish's only church).
