North London church turned into pub

O'Neills pub is a former Presbyterian church in Muswell Hill, north London. At one church, the only thing being worshipped is beer -- at another, gleaming cars are on sale. Increasingly, it seems, a different kind of conversion is taking place at Britain's churches. Due to a steady decline in religion and the high costs of maintaining these historic buildings, a rising number of churches are being given new lives that may have horrified their founders. — Photos by AFP.
