Hi Siobhan, Try contacting the nearest records office or main library. My local Records Office in Liverpool has a list of all churches, old and new, in Liverpool and where they are located. Lilian |

Hi Dave none of these match the names of the road where these churches are situated. In 1924 it was more likely to be Upper Holloway than Highgate, even then I cannot find the names of these churches. I think my best bet is to wait till I arrange a visit to the LMA. Thanks for you help all the same. Regards, Siobhan |

Siobhan If only you'd have asked this question last week, I had work that way and drove right past it! If you phone the Archway library I'm sure they'd know. I have a map with churches on and I can't see a church in that Road. The number of the library is 020 7527 7820 Lynda |

Hi Siobhan, If you go into www(.)streetmap(.)co(.)uk type in Miranda Road it will take you to a street map of the Highgate area and the local Churches are shown with a + Remove brackets first. Dave |

Hi Siobhan, My daughter lives in Highgate, I will ask her if she knows of Miranda Rd and the nearest church. Don`t hold out too much hope though as she is a student at uni and London - now if it was a pub you wanted finding, that would be different! Will let you know. Regards, Frances |

Siobhan the LMA holds copies of all the Kelly directories for london so you shouldbe able to find what you're after there |

Zoe thanks will try that when I sort out a trip to london. Need to go to the LMA, so perhaps they will have maps with the nearby churches. |

If you could get hold of the Kelly's directory for the area this lists residents street by street and would have major building such as a church. Zoe |

Does anyone know where I would find the nearest church to a address in 1924. I want to try searching parish registers to find a wedding, but need to find churches that were in the vicinity of the address. the address is 22 Miranda Road, Highgate, London |
