St Mary, Church Lane, Merton
The ancient parish church of Merton, it is in a large churchyard in the old village. The exterior was refaced and new aisles (north – Benjamin Ferrey 1856, south – F. Digweed 1856). The core of the building is a Norman nave and 13th-century chancel. The arch into the vicarage is of c.1175 and came from Merton Priory.
St James, Martin Way, Merton
Two churches at right angles to each other. The older one was built in 1934 as a hall and church and became a hall when the newer one facing the street was built in 1956-57. Both are by T.F. Ford. The current church features murals by Hans Feibusch and glass by John Hayward. The older building is shown at the end of the images. There is a separate Lady Chapel off the lobby linking the hall and church.
St John Fisher, Cannon Hill Lane, Merton
A church of 1962 by F.G. Broadbent. The stained glass Stations of the Cross are by Patrick Reytiens.
