By one of the churchyard entrances, all windows and doors, except one vehicle sized doorway in the left-hand end, are bricked up. The wall facing the street is plain.

Mitcham churchyard: former mortuary
The building looked to me to be out of keeping with churchyard buildings and possibly the right size and style for a London Electricity Board substation of the 1930s (or thereabouts). However I have since been informed by someone who used to live nearby that it was the mortuary including "slabs where the bodies were laid out for inspection after death". There was a separate cemetery chapel, which has now been demolished, and the mortuary is now disused with the windows bricked up.

The churchyard, Mitcham parish church, in winter - with conker tree
Looking eastwards from near the north-west corner of this vast churchyard, as the light faded on a December afternoon. The tree in the foreground is a horse-chestnut, Aesculus hippocastanum. This one looks reasonably healthy, but it has to be said that conker trees in the London area are seriously blighted. The species is not native, and so is less intimately woven into the ecological fabric than our native ash - but here in the London area its loss is going to be far more noticeable.
For more on the factors involved in the demise of the horse-chestnut, see
