Church of St Silas, Penton Street, Islington N1 - Islington
Built in 1860, designed by SS Teulon, completed in 1863 by EP Loftus Brock and chancel added in 1884 by W White. The roofs were re-slated in 2010, the south slope with photovoltaic tiles matching the slates in size and colour. Structural repairs to cracks at the west end were completed in 2016, grant-aided by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Stone repairs were carried out in 2018 to the north aisle. Repairs were completed to the north clerestory stonework and windows in 2020. The equivalent work is required to the south elevation although one window in urgent need was repaired June 2022.
