New Barnet Congregational Church is a church that once stood on the corner of Station Road and Plantagenet Road in New Barnet, London.[1] The church was designed by John Sulman and opened in April 1880.[2]

In 1963, it merged with the nearby St Augustine's Presbyterian Church in Mowbray Road. It closed on Easter Sunday 1967 after which the site was sold and used for a housing development. The funds raised from the sale of the site contributed to the redevelopment of the St Augustine's Presbyterian Church site which became the St John's United Reformed Church.[2]
