Fielding Memorial Chapel of St. Mark

The Fielding Memorial Chapel of St. Mark is a Chapel located on the site of Thorneloe. Designed by Townend Stefura Baleshta Architects (now Yallowega Bélanger Salach Architecture), construction was completed in 1968 by Neil Smith Construction Ltd.[2] From September to April, the chapel is used as a place of Anglican worship at noon on Thursdays. Some professors decide to use the space for teaching their courses, or host performances from Thorneloe's theatre and acting programs.[3] In 2017, it received both the Ontario Association of Architects Landmark Award and heritage building status from the city of Greater Sudbury.[4][5][6]
