St James Church tower
The rest of the church was to the left, but has been demolished and developed as flats with the tower incorporated. It was originally a Congregational church, and its successor, St James United Reformed Church, is a much more modest modern building set well back behind the camera.

Buckhurst Hill: Former Congregational Church Tower
Not being a local I am a little mystified by this tower in Palmerston Road. It was certainly built as part of the Congregational Church in 1873, designed by the architect Edmond Egan. There is a photo dated 1923 in the Francis Frith collection http://www.francisfrith.com/search/england/essex/buckhurst+hill/photos/buckhurst+hill_73931.htm of the tower with the church behind, but searching via Google fails to reveal why the body of the church was subsequently demolished. Was it damaged by a bomb, was the building unsound, or were the maintenance costs too high? Today some 1980s flats have replaced the church and somewhat incongruously abut the tower on its eastern side, while the view of the four slender corner turrets is totally ruined by the festooned mobile phone masts...
