St Alban Road, Bedford
Looking from the junction with Kimbolton Road, St Andrew's Church is out of the picture to the right.
And note that it's St Alban Road, not St Alban's Road !

St Andrew's Church, Kimbolton Road, Bedford
The church I attended as a child.
The church was originally set up in a corrugated iron shed behind the present building which I think was erected in the 1920's. The shed then became a church hall. The tower and extensions were built in the 1960's and 70's and the present Parish Centre was built within the past 15 years, replacing an earlier building north of the church.

Interior of St Andrew's Church, Bedford
Traditionally churches are aligned east-west, but St Andrew's is aligned parallel with Kimbolton Road, so the altar is at the north-east end.

The Parish Centre, St Andrew's Church, Bedford
The Parish Centre is to the north-east of the church, alongside Kimbolton Road.
The last time I was inside this building was after the funeral of my father in 2005.

St Augustine's Road, Bedford
At its junction with Park Avenue.
The building on the left used to be Dial House Nursing Home (named after a sundial on the wall). I think it's a private house now - in the late 1990's the nursing home moved to larger premises in Dynevor Road, keeping the same name.
