History

The church of Saint Bartholomew originated in an iron church established in 1874. From 1882 the church acted as a chapel of ease for Saint Mark's, Shoreditch. The congregation of Saint Mark's paid for the construction of a permanent building, and a parish was assigned taken from the parish of Saint Mark's. The church was closed during the Second World War and in 1953 the parish was merged with Saint Mark's. The building was eventually demolished.
