St Andrew

There are a number of indications that the site of the church is very old. The churchyard has a distinct curve to it perhaps following the shape of an underlying moat and ancient meeting place. An ancient Yew tree reckoned to be between 1,000 and 2,000 years old also stands in the churchyard.

Shree Sanatan Hindu Mandir

This Hindu temple in the suburb of Wembley (London) opened its doors in 2010. It took 14 years of work to cut and carve all the pieces and figures that make up the temple, for which only Indian limestone was used. The pieces and figures were shipped and assembled in the United Kingdom.

Belarusian Church

The Belarusian Memorial Chapel is the first wooden church built in London since the Great Fire of 1666. Designed by Spheron Architects, the chapel in Woodside Park has been built for the Belarusian diaspora community in the UK, and is dedicated to the memory of victims of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster.
