St Peter-in-the-Forest


St Peter-in-the-Forest is a Church of England church in Walthamstow, East London, sited in a small portion of Epping Forest. The building was founded in 1840 as a chapel of ease to St Mary's Church, Walthamstow, and designed by the architect John Shaw Jr. It became a parish of its own in 1844, was assigned a cemetery in 1845, and extended in 1887. Though damaged by bombing in World War II, and fire damaged in the 1970s, it was Grade II listed in 2009. It is currently on the Heritage at Risk Register.
