History
The church of Saint Jude was situated on Turk's Row. The church was constructed using grants from the Metropolitan Church Fund and the Royal Hospital. It was opened in 1844. A District was assigned from the parish of Holy Trinity at the same date. The church supported two missions and other parish organisations. In 1892 the church was united with Holy Trinity as the benefice was vacant. It was closed in 1932 and the proceeds from the sale of the lease went to the construction of Saint Alban's in Harrow. The site was used for the York House flats.
