London Churches in Photographs aim is to show images of the wealth of churches in Greater London. It is a long-term project, begun in 2012. As of April 2024, there are images of 1552 buildings, including 1005 interiors.

The project will continue with visits to boroughs covered early on when I gained access to relatively few interiors and when my skills and camera were inferior to now. There are also a few buildings missed in the initial sweep around all the boroughs that are being added.

Most are Church of England, Roman Catholic, or Orthodox but there are also some that have passed to other groups or into non-religious use. A few buildings of particular interest belonging to other groups, such as national churches (e.g. Denmark, Sweden, and Scotland) are also included.

Many churches are kept locked and for those, there are only exterior shots. Where possible there is a selection of internal shots to try to give a flavour of the building.  Each posting also has some basic information about the church and its architecture.

There are still some medieval village churches in Greater London.
This is St Peter & St Paul, Harlington

I would like to acknowledge and thank incumbents, churchwardens, PCCs, church watchers, administrators and key holders who offer access to many of the buildings outside service times.

I am more than happy for any church to use my images on their websites, publicity or publications (with an acknowledgment to this site). The images here are low resolution, suitable for use on the web but not for print. Please contact me if you would like to use or see higher-resolution images. This site is totally non-commercial, occasionally I am invited to speak to groups about church architecture and will do so in return for a charitable donation.
