Description

Streatham United Reformed Church, built in 1900 by James Cubitt, is a large red brick church designed in a modified Gothic style. It features a nave and a prominent east tower with battlements, which is divided into three stages, along with low aisles. The church has two projections on the south side and a transept-like projection on the north side, where a porch is situated in the north-east corner. Additional projections are found to the south-west, along with a southern porch attached to the tower. The windows are stone-mullioned and consist of two and three lights with cusped heads, while the aisle windows are adorned with brick hoodmoulds. The south porch and north transept showcase brick and flint flushwork. The church is topped with high-pitched tiled roofs and features intricate brick detailing on the tower. There is a vestry extension at the south-west that leads to the Church Room, and a linked Sunday School to the north, although the latter is not of special interest.
