#WalthamForestCouncil plan to reimagine #VestryHouseMuseum #Walthamstow, using these 3 models (below). We fear that it'll be more of Models 2 & 3 than Model 1 ! Before the Cabinet vote in April, contact your local Councillors + give your feedback here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
St Mary's church bells Walthamstow 1896
Here’s one example!
Near completion, "The Bell of St Mary's". Sculpture produced from the old parts of the recently restored bells of St Marys Church in Walthamstow, E17.
All 10 of the bells in St Mary's Church, Walthamstow Village have now been taken down from the tower for restoration
Cafe hours are 8.30am to 4pm, Monday to Saturday. We hope to see you soon!
How many 12th Century churches have a walk-up window where you can order a coffee & sit outside? We do! Of course, we’d also love to have you sit *inside* & enjoy sitting in #Walthamstow’s ancient church & oldest building - just come in through the main entrance to the church!

It’s all happening at St Mary’s today as we soft-launch the @frothandrind pop-up cafe (which we’re hoping to make permanent!), install our upcoming ‘Material Witnesses’ textiles exhibition & welcome people for a 12pm ‘Signs & Symbols’ tour of the building. Join us #Walthamstow!

A recent acquired 1985 Mosque and prayer guide for UK is creating a lot of conversations amongst the Muslims! Did you grow up with a copy too? #mosque #prayer #UK #1985
Looking up Old Church Road, Chingford, c1910. The hill up to All Saints (Old Church) was formally known as Big Church Hill. You can just see the collapsed nave of the church that occurred in 1904 due to neglect. The road was widened in the 1930s during redevelopment of the area.
Sculptor Don Potter was born #OTD 1902. He lived in Victoria Rd, Chingford from 1915-1920s, teaching wood carving at Gilwell Park. Our Lady of Grace & St Teresa RC church in Chingford features his carving 1956. 📸 OS map section 1920. Church by John Salmon is.gd/4lVbX1
