Emmanuel Parish Church, Leyton

Subsequently, a plot of land in Bloxhall Road at the junction with Lea Bridge Road was donated for a church by the property developer Sir Courtenay Warner, whose Warner Estate housing dominated the area.

In June 1934, the foundation stone was laid for a new permanent church to be built alongside the temporary one, to the design of Martin Travers and T. F. W.

[1] The exterior is of red brick in a style described as "simple Tudor" or "vernacular Gothic".

[3] The ground plan is rectangular, 89 feet (27 m) in length, consisting of a nave with two aisles.

The short chancel is at the same height as the nave, so that the roof is continuous along the length of the building.
