All Saints on London Road (exterior and interior), both from old postcards in Judy Flynn's collection. Its grade II listing dates it to 1864. A 2023 Streetview provides a modern view. SU 9116 6886. Link.

All Souls, on All Souls Road. SU 9229 6800. From an old postcard in Steve Bulman's Collection. Another old postcard, from Judy Flynn's collection, shows the interior. A modern view, from Streetview in 2023. Link. Grade II* listed.

Ascot Life Church is indicated on Google Maps on High Street, and the pin points to this building (2023 Streetview) on Sundays (SU 9186 6885), and another (2023 Streetview) on New Road and King Edwards Road during the week (SU 9149 7002). This seems to be the same building (or stands on the site of) a Baptist Chapel, listed on Genuki where it's dated to 1886. Link.
