Built in 1886, this historic church was designed in an Old English style meant to mirror a medieval building in England.

St. Mark's Episcopal Church is a historic church located in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The building was designed by architect Henry M. Congdon in an Old English style and underwent construction during 1886 - 1888.

The design of the church was supposedly modeled after the Stoke Poges Church, which was built near London, England, in 1080. This architectural choice brought a specific historical aesthetic to the Wyoming landscape.

In 1970, the church was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Today, it remains a recognized piece of heritage at its address on Central Avenue.
