Britain Moves Many of Her Old Churches
The Central Council for the Care of Churches proposes wholesale removal of usable but unattended churches to denser areas. Moving a medieval structure costs about 70 cents per cubic foot in 1951, cheaper than new brick builds, with some risk to historic associations but preserved atmosphere and design. All Saints Camberwell and St James Hampstead Road are underway, destined for Biggin Hill and Hammersmith respectively.
