I have someone in my tree who married in Emmanuel Congregational Church, Camberwell, in 1924. I have not been able to find anything on this church. Does anyone with local knowledge have any details.
Thanks!

Hi,
It seems it no longer functions as an Anglican church. You can information here,

Hi
I too was searching for Emmanuel Congregational Church in Camberwell, for a marriage in my tree and your message came up. As your email is quite old, you may have found info about it by now. There is info about it now on-line and a lovely old postcard photo. The other posted reply was correct the church is longer there, but they were referencing another unrelated Anglican church.
On Google images you will find a photo of it if you input 'Emmanuel Congregational Church Camberwell' or here is the link:
