Biographical history
The church was originally built in 1843-44 by G. Alexander, but unfortunately was damaged by fire and rebuilt by G.E. Street in 1858. The chancel was enlarged and embellished although the west tower, spire and outer walls of the original church were retained. At the time of its construction, Saint Paul's church was surrounded largely by fields as Herne Hill was still very much a rural area, but by the 1890's it had become urbanised following the emergence of a railway station and numerous houses in the neighbourhood.
