St Peter, Wickham Road, Brockley
A broad hilltop church by Frederick Marrable and dating from 1870. The tower was completed by Arthur Blomfield in 1890. The transepts have been divided off beneath the galleries and these are shown at the end of the interior images. The lighting gives a pink cast which affects some of these images. The north chancel chapel contains a large WW1 memorial to all who served from the parish but it is obscured by storage.
St Nicholas, Deptford Green, Deptford
