Summary Description

This large Victorian Gothic church stands in a rare open space in the oldest part of Hammersmith on Queen Caroline Street, the tall north-east tower with its slender pinnacles a notable local landmark. Built in 1882-91 by the Chamberlain Brothers, designed by J P Seddon and H R Gough as a new parish church for Hammersmith following the development of the area in the wake of the railway. It replaced an early 17th-century chapel-of-ease on the site, the first place of worship here, as Hammersmith had previously been part of the parish of Fulham.
