Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox church Chingford United Reformed Church is a Grade II listed United Reformed Church at Buxton Road, Chingford, in the London Borough of Waltham Forest.[1]
History
The original Congregational church in Chingford was founded in 1888, initially meeting at a café in Station Road called the Victoria Coffee Palace. A plot of land was bought by the church in 1889 and a temporary corrugated iron building, or "tin tabernacle" was erected on the site. In 1890, a church hall was opened, named Spicer Hall after James Spicer, a benefactor.[2] The architect of the hall was Rowland Plumbe; it was eventually sold by the church and converted into apartments in 2004.[3] In 1910, the new church was constructed; the architects were John Diggle Mould and his younger brother Samuel Joseph Mould,[1] who were Primitive Methodists from Manchester that specialised in Nonconformist church buildings.[4]
Description
Of red brick with stone banding, the west frontage facing Buxton Road has a triple entrance under a large Perpendicular Gothic window, leaded in the Art Nouveau style. A tower with pinnacles and a copper clad spire stands on the right of the front. Internally, a foyer below a gallery gives entry to a square nave, made octagonal by stone arches in the corners. A stone screen under a large arch divide the nave from a polygonal sanctuary.[3]
