St Matthew's Church, Silverhill
St Matthew's Church is an Anglican church in the Silverhill suburb of Hastings, a town and borough in the English county of East Sussex. The present building, a large brick structure of 1884 by ecclesiastical architect John Loughborough Pearson, replaced a much smaller church founded in 1860 when Silverhill began to grow from an agricultural area with scattered cottages into a suburb of the increasingly fashionable seaside resort of Hastings.

English Heritage has listed the building at Grade II* for its architectural and historical importance. History As early as 928, when it was first described in writing, Hastings was an important town.
