St Luke, Bromley Common
A prominent landmark south of Bromley town centre on the corner of Southlands Road. It dates from 1886-90 and is by Arthur Cawston. The tower top and spire were finished in 1910. It is now very visibly used by the evangelical Hope church as well as for Anglican services.

The Ascension, Malwood Road, Balham
Not far from Clapham South station near Balham Hill. It dates from 1883-90 and is by Arthur Cawston. It was set up for a toddler group when I visited in 2018, and the west end was inaccessible due to heating work being undertaken. A revisit in 2023 (upper set) saw the whole church open with the nave used as a coffee shop, the Lady Chapel as a clothing exchange and the baptistry as a refill and reuse point.

St Mary, Balham High Road, Balham
Originally a proprietary chapel built by F. Hurlbatt in 1807, he added transepts in 1824. It became a parish church in 1855, after which a chancel was added in 1882 by Arthur Cawston and the street front and baptistery in 1903 by William Newton Dunn. The west end including the baptistery is now screened off from the rest of the church.
