History
The church of Saint John the Divine was built between 1883 and 1900, in two stages. The architect of the first stage (the chancel) was R.J. Withers and the second stage (nave and aisles) was E.H. Elphick. The church was closed in 1983 and sold for residential use. The parish was merged with Saint Mary, Balham (P95/MRY3) to form the parish of Saint Mary and Saint John the Divine.
