St Augustine, Slade Green

A short way from the railway station. It was built in 1900, with a westward extension and south aisle added 1909-11 by William Thomas Margetts. The exteriors are from 2014 when it was easier to see as the lime trees had been pollarded.

 

Christ Church, Victoria Road, Erith

Prominent above the railway cutting east of the town centre in a well wooded churchyard. It was built in 1874 by J.P St Aubyn. The interior is relatively little altered and features a decorative scheme from the early 20th century by Ward & Hughes.
