Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Saint Michael's Church appears to have originated in the Railway Arch Mission, Wyndham Road, established in the parish of Saint George, Camberwell in the 1870s. In August 1883 part of Saint George's parish west of Camberwell Road, and with it Saint Michael's Mission Church, was transferred to the parish of Saint John the Divine, Kennington. A new church was built in Sultan Street. In 1922 Saint Michael's became a separate parish.

In circa 1956 Saint Michael was united with the parish of All Souls, Grosvenor Park. Saint Michael's Church served initially as the parish church of Saint Michael and All Angels with All Souls, Camberwell, but was replaced in 1957 by the restored church of All Souls. In 1965 the parish was united with Emmanuel, Camberwell to form the parish of Saint Michael and All Angels and All Souls with Emmanuel, Camberwell. In 1972 it was entered into a group ministry with Saint Paul, Lorrimore Square, Walworth. In 1987 it was designated to form a team ministry with Saint Mary, Newington.
