The church building was consecrated on Ascension Day,
14 May 1874. In 1875 the District Chapelry of Christ
Church, Mitcham, was created, and this became a
parish some time between 1875 and 1914. It was not
until recent years that the name of the parish was
changed to Christ Church, Colliers Wood, to reflect
changes in population.
The watercolour at the bottom right was painted by
William Sleath R.A. in about 1895, and shows the
church in its original, rural, setting surrounded by
meadows.
