Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Saint Michael's Church, Wood Green, was designed by the architects George Gilbert Scott and WB Moffat and consecrated as a chapel of ease in 1844. Following a temporary closure in the 1850s due to problems of subsidence, it was reconstructed in 1865. In 1866 Saint Michael's became a district chapelry, taken from the parent parish, with the vicar of Tottenham as patron. Saint Michael's ran two mission churches: Saint John, Brook Road was dedicated in 1898, and the Good Shepherd, Berwick Road was dedicated in 1916.
