Christ Church, Sumner Road, Croydon
A short way north of the town centre. The original church of 1851-1852 by S.S. Teulon, having closed in 1978 was badly damaged by fire in 1985 leaving the west end of the nave to be incorporated in a new building of 1991 by Maurice Taylor. The old church section is now a hall and the newer section, the worship area.

St Paul (Former), Devonshire Drive, Greenwich (now 7th Day Adventist)
South of Greenwich town centre, this is an incomplete church of 1865-1866 by either S.S. or W.M. Teulon. It was badly damaged in WW2 and rebuilt subsequently. It closed in 1978 and was then used by a Wesleyan group until redundancy in 1984. It was then leased to Calvary Church and a scout troop before being sold in 1991 to the Seventh-day Adventists.

All Saints, All Saints Road, Benhilton
In a commanding hill-top position as you come north out of Sutton. It is by S.S. Teulon and dates from 1863-66. Most of the 19th-century glass was destroyed in WW2 and has been partly replaced by glass by John Hayward and Goddard & Gibbs. In the 1980s the church was struck by lightning, damaging some of the chancel and Lady Chapel but the damage has been restored invisibly.














































































































Christ Church, Copse Hill, West Wimbledon
Built 1859-60 by S.S. Teulon, with a west bay added in 1881 by Charles Maylard and an 1875 choir vestry added by F.C. Penrose.










































St Mary, Ealing
Ealing parish church but now a good mile south of the modern town centre. It is a church of 1735-40 by J. Horne but reimagined by S.S. Teulon 1866-74 in a byzantine manner. The interior is a tour de force of polychrome brickwork, painted ironwork, an elaborate roof structure and glass designed by Thomas Boddington (the treasurer of Teulon’s restoration) and made by Heaton, Butler & Bayne. The yellowish baptistery windows are by Lavers & Barraud. The interior was restored 2002-2003.

St Mark, Silvertown (former)
One of S.S.Teulon’s major buildings dating from 1860-62, standing almost alone normally, but currently partly surrounded by a crossrail construction site. As at St Stephen’s, Rosslyn Hill the church stood disused and vandalized, before being restored as Brick Lane Music Hall between 1984-89 by Julian Harrap.
