Hampstead, Rosslyn Hill 1898

More about this scene
The camera looks towards Hampstead High Street, formerly Red Lion Hill. The mid 19th-century houses are fairly run-of-the-mill, but had the cameraman turned round he could have photographed a fairly new arrival on the Hill. This is St Stephen's Church, designed by S S Teulon in 1873, a superb red-brick High Victorian building. It has suffered gravely since being declared redundant in 1977, and is boarded up at the time of writing. The church is included in English Heritage's Register of Buildings at Risk in Greater London.
