The Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Croydon is the parish (established 1993) church with a seating capacity of 500. It incorporates the original monastic chapel, opened in April 1939 by Archbishop Mannix. The building was extended in 2000 to create the new church. The original chapel with a seating capacity of 100, was adequate for a cloistered religious community, but not for a parish church. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 23/10/2020.
