St Andrew, The Drive, Ilford
On the north side of Ilford, a massive church by Sir Herbert Baker dating from 1923-24, the hall of 1907 next door was the church until the current one was built. There are several fine Karl Parsons windows in the church. There is also a brand new window in the chancel clerestory by David Griffiths. A side chapel is a memorial to the Griggs family who paid for much of the church.
