CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
The Church of Saint Barnabas was consecrated on 11 June 1847 as the parish church for Homerton. In 1885 a temporary church (Saint Paul's) was built in Glyn Road and the curate of Saint Barnabas became the curate-in-charge of Saint Paul's. Later a permanent church was erected there and Saint Paul's, Lower Homerton, became a separate parish. Saint Paul's Church became redundant in 1981 and the parishes of Saint Paul and Saint Barnabas were reunited.
