It is said that the church was named by the first rector Rev. Henry Norburn. He chose the name because the two members of the clergy who helped in the establishment of the church, Bishop Fraser and Archdeacon Anson, both had wives by the name of Agnes.  



The building was designed by the architectural practice of J. Medland & Henry Taylor.  Pevsner regarded it as, "An amazingly willful design," that incorporated, "... one of Taylor's funny little dormers ---- high on the s side, and there is a quirky little bell-turret."
