St Elphege's RC Church, Wallington

The red brick facade of St Elphege's sits quietly on the high street in Wallington, a Roman Catholic church that most people hurry past without a second glance. Step inside and you'll find yourself in a surprisingly light, spacious interior - all soaring ceilings and stained glass that catches the afternoon sun properly well. It's a working parish church, so you'll need to respect service times, but the architecture alone rewards a visit if you're into Victorian ecclesiastical design.

This one appeals to architecture enthusiasts and anyone with a passing interest in religious history rather than families wanting a packed itinerary. The craftsmanship is solid without being showy - there's something refreshingly honest about it. You'll spend twenty minutes here, thirty if you're the type to read every inscription.

Located near Redhill, it's the sort of place to tack onto a wider explore of Wallington's town centre rather than drive out specifically for. If you're staying at Alderstead Heath Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite five miles away, it makes an easy detour on a rainy afternoon or a gentle walk from the station. Admission appears to be free, though opening hours aren't always predictable - best to check before you plan around it. Worth knowing about if you're the kind of person who likes dipping into local churches, but not the reason to book a park holiday in the area.
