68 Crooms Hill SE10 8HG LONDON
Época construcción	Years 1846-51
Descripción	The Church of Our Ladye Star of the Sea is a Roman Catholic church situated south of Greenwich town centre on the west side of Croom's Hill, and west of Greenwich Park in southeast London. Built from 1846-51, it was designed by William Wardell in a Decorated Gothic style, with a landmark spire, fittings and decorative elements designed by Augustus Pugin and his son E. W. Pugin. The building was opened on the 8th December 1851, right after construction had been finished.It was constructed of Kentish ragstone with Caen stone dressings and roofed in Welsh slate, all local materials, making it look similar to how other Church buildings around the area were built. Work on the spire was completed in 1849; the cross at its apex is said to have been raised by Nelson's boatswain at the Battle of Trafalgar.The Church has a beautiful bell tower, possibly holding one bell or more. It also has a burlush opposite the tower with one bell. SOURCE: Wikipedia The bell tower is in an overall good state in terms of conservation, all except what would have been the ringing room, which has slightly unstable wooden floorboards, which makes it a bit unsafe.
