It's also where I was christened

I've just tweaked the London/Middx palces of worship index so Winchmore Hill appears

[Guest]

There was also ST Peter's Church in Grange Park, also part of Winchmore Hill. I spent my childhood in Winchmore Hill and St Peter's was our family church, although I am not sure if it was the Parish Church for the whole of the area.

oh was there Jo I had assumed St Pauls was the one ?? this was in 1895 ?

St Peters dates from 1927, St Paul was built much earlier more, about it here

[Guest]

oh brilliant Jill then St Pauls is the right one .

[jorog]

St Pauls was much older - I used to walk past it on my way to school, over 50 years ago.

Hi

There is a website called Geograph - Search Results, matching 'winchmore hill london' :: Geograph British Isles - photograph every grid square!

which aims to photograph every gridsquare in Britain using donated photographs. There are quite a lot on there of St Pauls Church Winchmore Hill.
Using the search boxes I just typed in Winchmore Hill London and they came up on the first page.

greybird,

the link you have given is ok, its just that our forum translates the web address, you can still click on the link though and it should still take you to the website

That geograph site is amazing, thanks for that link

It's interesting to see the photos inside, it was locked on the day I visited. I don't remember anything about it as I was only 4 when we left the area.

I went back last year for a look & took photos as well of The Green where we lived, the ironmongers we lived over is now an Italian restaurant - hope they've got rid of the strong smell of paraffin that haunted the place!
