A pleasantly warm evening outside All Hallows Church. Plans had been laid for this building in 1939 and it was completed in spite of WW2, its consecration taking place on the 21st December 1941. The font came from All Hallows Church in Poplar and the choir stalls from St. Catherine’s Church in Hammersmith, which had both been damaged by enemy action. Click here, here and here for images of the church and here for the church hall where the local allotment society’s shows are held.

Awwww. Thanks. You are too kind. Nice pic. 🙂
Well, thought you deserved it, after all you have blogged under rather more challenging circumstances.
Nice, I lived in Elton Avenue for 16 years, I also remember the night the church caught fire
A really attractive building.
