Designed by N.F. Cachemaille-Day and built 1938-39. The interior is relatively untouched and several later fittings have been added in the spirit of the 1930s.

Christ the King, Chingford Rd, Walthamstow E4 8SP (Roman Catholic)

By a fearsome road junction near the old Walthamstow Greyhound Stadium. It was designed in 1996 by Scott Tallon Walker. The main church is semi-circular, with a small chapel on the opposite side of the entrance area.

St Andrew, Chingford Lane, Woodford Green

A small chapel, the architect seems unrecorded but the church dates from the late 19th century with later additions. The worship area is in the wing topped with a cross and the hall is at right angles to it, linked by the newer entrance area.

St Gabriel, Aldersbrook Road, Aldersbrook

Facing Wanstead Flats (a large area of open land not a housing estate). Designed by Charles Spooner and completed in 1914.
