Window detail of concrete New Church in Anerley, South London. Constructed in concrete using Portland cement & pink dye in 1883.

---

The concrete church in Anerley was designed by W J E Henley of the Concrete Building Company in a style described by Pevsner as 'Rogue Gothic'. It was one of the earliest buildings to be built using mass-concrete and continued in use as a church for over 100 years. The building has since been converted into flats but retains its outward appearance of a concrete church.
