Description

West Croydon United Reformed Church, formerly known as West Croydon Congregational Church, was built in 1886 by Mr. Church. The church is designed in a Gothic style, reflecting elements from the 13th and 14th centuries, and is constructed from Kentish ragstone. It features a nave, aisles, transepts, and a prominent tower with a broad spire located at the corner of the road. The roof is made of slate and includes a wooden fleche over the crossing. The church is listed partly for its value to the town's landscape.
