Christ Church, Albany Street, consecrated 13 July 1837, was the first church to be built under Bishop Blomfield's church extension scheme. It was designed by James Pennethorne but altered and decorated in 1867 by William Butterfield. The first incumbent, William Dodsworth (1798-1861), resigned in 1851 to join the Roman Catholic church. Amongst the well-known names associated with 'the new church near Regent's Park' was that of the Rosetti family, Christina Rosetti being presented there for confirmation in 1845. The baptism registers commence in 1837 and the marriage registers in 1846. Christ Church was closed in 1989, the parish being united with that of Saint Mary Magdalene, Munster Square (P90/MMG). It is now used by a branch of the Orthodox church.
