Alongside the Grand Union Canal this is one of George Edmund Street’s masterpieces dating from 1868-1878. It is fitted onto an awkwardly shaped site, defined by now demolished streets. Most of the glass was designed by Henry Holliday and made by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. The south aisle of the crypt (the bottom 10 pictures) was made into the chapel of St Sepulchre by Ninian Comper in 1895, it was renovated by Sebastian Comper in 1967. When I visited in 2012 this was in need of restoration, which was carried out in 2019. At that time the west end gained an extension called Grand Junction containing a cafe and community facilities. The top set of images is from 2025 and the lower set is from 2012.
