History
The church of Saint Alban the Martyr, Golders Green, was built as a chapel-of-ease to All Saints, Childs Hill, in 1910. It became the centre of a new parish taken from that of All Saints in 1922. The original church, a simple brick building, became the parish hall in 1933, when another church was built adjacent to it. The second church was by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, who also designed most of the fittings, in a Gothic inspired style. In 1979 St Alban was united with Saint Michael, Golders Green to form the new parish of Golders Green.
