More about this scene

Standing high above the town centre and attractively sited on the crown of the hill, the church with its elegant broach spire was designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield in c1861, but not completed until 1881, when the west porch was added. Although the exterior is faced in Kentish ragstone, the interior is of somewhat more mundane brick. The interest of the building resides in its exterior and its setting.

Back in 1965 we moved into 6 Tregaron Avenue, just off Crouch Hill. I was 3 years old and there were six of us, Mum and Dad, my sister Jill and our lovely Nan and Auntie Peggy. One of my earliest and fondest memories is of on Sunday nights you could look out of my nan's upstairs dining room and see the crucifix all lit up on the steeple of Christ Church. Such lovely happy memories of a wonderful childhood.
