Description: St Mary's Roman Catholic Church, High Street, Gosport, Borough of Gosport, Hampshire. Work on the present church began in 1857 and concluded in 1897 with the wesst front (shown here), but the first Catholic chapel in Gosport was built in around 1750. For many years it was served by the priest of Havant, an even older centre of the faith. Catholics in Portsmouth, who had no church of their own, would row across the harbour to Gosport to attend Mass.
