Biografie

Holy Cross, Greenford is an ancient parish in the Ealing West Deanery which is within the Willesden Area of the Diocese of London. Due to population increases in the 1930s, three mission churches were opened in the parish: All Hallows in North Greenford; Christ the Redeemer, Windmill Lane and St Edward the Confessor in Perivale Park. All Hallows became a parish in its own right in 1949, as did Christ the Redeemer in 1964. The connection between Holy Cross and its mission churches is evident in the Parochial Church Council minutes.

In spite of the increased provision of places of worship within the parish the church at Holy Cross was proving far too small for the population by the end of the 1930s. Professor Sir Albert Richardson designed the New Church which was built in 1939-1940. It is situated a few yards to the west of the Old Church.

Due to its state of repair the Old Church was closed in 1951. After restoration it was reconsecrated in 1956. Currently services take place in both churches.
