All Saints’ Church


This red-brick church was founded in 1912 and while there's something of the English country village look to its shape, in colour and atmosphere it's a wholly South Asian affair. The interior, which contains memorials to those killed in WWII, is remarkably staid when compared to the flamboyance of the exterior. It hosts regular services.
