Philip Crouch book signing

 From Tent to Brick and Concrete

by Philip Crouch

It is clear that this book is thoroughly researched and bursting with facts about the concept, planning and building of a parish church for North Harrow – St. Alban’s.
Well-upholstered with contemporary pictures, many showing the building in the process of construction, this is the definitive history of how our church came into being.  Starting with the building of ‘Metroland’ and the need for a permanent church, the book takes us through all the trials and tribulations of achieving such a massive undertaking.

Comprehensive Appendices supply all the detail and background necessary for a full appreciation of the story. If you haven’t purchased one already - on sale in Church at only £5.00 - treat yourself, or family and friends.
