The Side Chapel and Triptych
The side chapel at St Mary's is mostly used for our 8 am Holy Communion
service. Above the altar hangs a triptych donated to the parish by
John Napier, who was married here in 1946. It shows some stories
from Scripture against the background of images from
Battersea. The raising of Lazarus under the lamp of the
church porch, the annunciation within sight of Battersea Power Station,
and Christ walking on the water of the River Thames. The cross on
the altar is made entirely from material discovered on the river bank.
