Church of the Sacred Heart, Camberwell
The Roman Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart is a Roman Catholic church on Knatchbull Road and Camberwell New Road in Camberwell, south-east London, SE5.
The first church on this site was destroyed by enemy action during The Blitz between 8–9 October 1941.[1]
The church was built between 1952 and 1958 in the Moderne style and has been listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England since 2015.[2] The foundation stone of the present church had been laid by Cyril Cowderoy on 19 April 1952.[1]
The devotional Stations of the Cross sculptures of Sacred Heart were supplied by Burns & Oates, and are placed above the side aisles of the church. The individual Stations of the Cross are made using the opus sectile technique, inlaid on a gold mosaic background.[2]
