St Marks is a beautiful Victorian Gothic style Church in central Newport. It has an elegant tower which has both a rose window with fine tracery and also a well-wrought quarterly chiming clock. Works of art include beautifully quilted banners depicting the life of St Mark designed and worked by members of the congregation. There are a series of lovely stained glass windows dating from the nineteenth century.  The Victorian Connacher Organ has been restored and augmented by Nicholson’s of Great Malvern. The Church was built by Habershon’s a local firm of architects, who were also responsible for the Victorian restoration of St Woolos Cathedral, and it was consecrated in 1874.
