Notes:
The church of Saint George the Martyr was originally situated in Battersea Park Road. A new church, in Patmore Street, was opened in 1955.
"St George's was … enlarged with a chancel in 1874. The district became
hopelessly dreary, and the church was not needed." (from 'Parish Churches of
London', Basil F L Clarke, Batsford, 1966).
Despite Clarke’s comment, and damage in World War 2, the church remained
in use until closed in 1953, then leased to a theatrical agency for storage until
destroyed by fire in 1960. The bell was re-hung in the replacement church
(BAT09).
The site was sold to Regent Lion Investments Ltd. and appears now to be part of an industrial estate. The parish was taken into Battersea, St George with St
Andrew in 1944. Location : Latitude: 51.4744155, Longitude: -0.1555514
