View looking west from Lorn Road of St Michael's in Stockwell Park Road. The church was built at a cost of £4,918 to the designs of William Rogers in 1840-1 on land given by William Cox. In 1880 the layout was altered, moving the altar from beneath the tower arcade to the west end, where a new apsidal chancel replaced the original porch. The exterior was restored with new pinnacles in 1896, and the interior renovated in 1920 by A.R. Powys. The flying buttresses and pinnicles were removed from the base of the spire in 1930. Damaged in June 1944 by a flying bomb, it was restored and re-dedicated in 1952. The areas on either side of this intersection are former WWII bomb sites.
