Description
Coulsdon Methodist Church was built in 1911 by architects Gordon and Gunton and is designed in a free late Gothic style. The church is constructed from flint with stone dressings. The west front features two large four-light windows adorned with tracery, set within deep reveals and shallow pointed arches that die into the jambs, along with a single lancet window above. The gable is decorated with a chequerwork pattern.
On the south-west side, there is a porch with shaped merlons on its battlemented parapet and pinnacles at the external corners. The south-east tower is battered and supported by diagonal clasping stone buttresses that do not have set-offs. The doorway features a four-centred head and a triple-chamfered arch, with a corbel table above. The bell stage includes a wide four-light window on each face, which is deeply recessed under a triple moulded arch with a stepped central mullion, and is topped with a corbel table and tall shaped battlements, also featuring chequerwork.
