St Paul, Crofton

A fine 1950s church by Knapp-Fisher, it replaces the original church which stands behind it and is now used as a church hall. The church is in domestic gothic form and the west gallery dates from a time when such things were coming back into fashion for the first time since the mid nineteenth century, and there is a meeting room beneath it. Inside the eye is taken to the octagonal east window by Gounil & Philip Brown of 1958. There is little else of architectural interest though the whole forms a charming ensemble and obviously much-loved. It is also open most mornings.
