The Greek Orthodox Community of Ss. Raphael, Nicholas and Irene, Hertford Road, Enfield EN3 5JE (formerly Hertford Road Cemetery Chapel)
The small cemetery chapel in Hertford Road cemetery, just behind the churchyard of St James, Enfield Wash. Before being used by the Greek Orthodox Church it was boarded up for many years. The cemetery was opened in 1880 so it seems likely that the chapel is of the same date.
St Paul, Church Hill, Winchmore Hill
Not far from the station, and rather hidden in trees, this is a very wide church of 1826-27 by John Davies. The original chancel was very short but a new larger one was added in 1889 along with vestries.
