St Matthew's church, Brixton

The parish church of Brixton was built in 1822 to the designs of C.F. Porden. St Matthew's and its churchyard (now a public park) stand on a triangle of land that forms a gyratory traffic system.

The building is listed grade 2* (listed building no. 204008), but during the 1970's and 1980's the interior was significantly re-ordered to provide a range of community facilities, and following the financial collapse of that enterprise it was again refurbished in 1993-4. The basement is now a restaurant/nightclub, but part of the ground floor is still set aside as a parish church TQ3075 : St Matthew's church, Brixton - worship area.
