History

In 1926, Linden Grove Church, Peckham Rye, being without a minister, joined together with Christ Church Congregational Church, Peckham High Street, the new combined church taking the name Church of the Strangers. This arrangement came to an end in 1927; the church in Linden Grove reverted to its former name, and that in Peckham High Street became the Church of the Strangers. Marriages of the combined church were performed in the Linden Grove Church.
