Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Christ Church was designed by J.E.K. Cutts in the French Gothic style of the 13th century. It was built of stock brick with bands of black and red brick with a vestibule and steeply pitched roof of slate. It seated 800 with 550 free seats. The Christ Church Oxford Mission came to the church in 1928. In 1940 Christ Church was united with Saint Michael and All Angels and the building was subsequently demolished. In 1973 the site was occupied by the Notting Hill Adventure Playground.
