Rev. A. C. Buckell cross

Site: Rev. A. C. Buckell cross (2 memorials)

W5, The Grove, St Saviour's Church House car park

This cross appears in the 1952 film The Last Page/Man Bait - we were pleased that confirmed our identification of this church. The scene begins at about 1 hour in: a character hides from the police in a bombed-out church.  He enters from The Grove, through the archway at St Saviour's Church House, passes by this cross (without the surrounding plants but with a church apse behind to the left.  He then enters through double doors and comes out in a roofless church. Later a woman meets him there and as they talk they move around and we get to see how a lot of the walls remain standing, but little else, until the last shot of the scene which shows some Gothic-style carving on the wall behind them.

See St Saviour's Church House foundation stone for information about the church.
