St Peter and St Paul's Churchyard, Chingford (also known as St Peter and St Paul, Chingford Old Church, Chingford Parish Church)

Introduction

The church and its surrounding graveyard are on former forest land, but it is now in the centre of Chingford and surrounded by roads. The churchyard is well planted with trees including holm oak and lime, and the area around Chingford Green retains some sense of its former village atmosphere.
