Christ the Saviour (former St Michael), Upper Wickham Lane, East Wickham (Greek Orthodox)

January 10, 2014 15:54 / Leave a comment

The original 13th-century parish church of East Wickham was replaced in 1935 by the current St Michael. It was made redundant in 1973 and has been used by a Greek Orthodox congregation since 1974. Many fittings were moved into St Michael but for obvious reasons, wall paintings remain. Since my earlier visit in 2014 a new largely glass narthex has been added to the church and this is shown in the first set of images. The second set shows the church, including the interior from the earlier visit.

In a large shared churchyard, this building replaced the medieval church which is now the Greek Orthodox church of Christ the Saviour. It was designed by Thomas F. Ford and built in 1933.
