Another selection of beautiful and creative Nativity scenes to be found in and around the capital. My thanks to ‘friends’ in the Facebook group Londonist Urban Oddities for your suggestions, which took me further afield than I was expecting to go!
The Bayswater Collection (sounds posh)
Central London Collection
Life-size figures in the Trafalgar Square Nativity 
The Carshalton, Surrey, Collection
Wallington/Croydon/ Old Coulsdon Collection
St Elphege’s RC Church, Wallington 
The Entertainer Christian Toyshop
And to finish, a few words from two people with associations with London:
‘Pleased as Man, with man to dwell, Jesus, our Emanuel. Hark the Herald Angels sing, Glory to the new born King!’ – Charles Wesley, Hark the Herald Angels Sing
‘And as Tiny Tim observed, God bless us, Every One!’ – Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
Happy Christmas and a Hopeful, Peaceful New Year.

Hi, I spoke to you in All Hallows by the Tower a few months ago. Just seen this article on Nativity displays. You should come and have a look at the one outside St Margaret ‘s RC Church, Barking Road, Canning Town, its a 2 minute walk from the station. If you email me I can send you pics

Thanks Kathy, unfortunately I can’t get up to central London as no trains are running to Victoria/London Bridge at the moment after 9.30. I’ll come up later this year and explore this church, and in December to see the Nativity, I always need new ones for the blog!
