CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
The church of Saint Jude on Dulwich Road, East Brixton, was constructed between 1867 and 1868. The site of the church was donated by Joseph Moore and Herbert Dalton, while Joshua Blackburn contributed towards the cost of building. The architect was E.C. Robins, who designed a conventional Victorian Gothic building. A district chapelry was assigned to the church in 1869. The church was damaged by fire in 1923, and again damaged by bombing during the Second World War. In 1952 part of the church was enclosed to form a chapel until the rest of the church could be repaired.
The parish has now been amalgamated with Saint Matthew's, Brixton, to form the parish of St Matthew with St Jude.
