I too have been trying to find a picture of St Oswald Church in Anselm Road. We live nearby and know people who live in Somer Court, which was built on the site of the old church after it was demolished in the 1970s.
I have been to the Hammersmith Archives and spoken to the chairman of the local historical society, but to no avail.
Has anyone managed to locate one since the last posts?

Hello anselm13,
So far I have not located anything, I am waiting for London Metropolitan Archives to reply to an email I have sent to them. Apparently they may have some information.
If I hear anything I will let you know.

I have seen the bomb report for Anselm Road. There were 20 terraced houses on the same side of Anselm Road (the north side) directly to the west of St Oswald's Church, which were affected by a flying bomb. However, they took down 11 and left 9, which are still there today. The church itself was not hit, as the bomb was at the west end of Anselm Road near North End Road. So St Oswalds survived WWII in tact.
