        History

        Saint Clement's church was formed in 1862 from Saint James, Lower Holloway. It was founded by George Cubitt. M.P. to be less evangelical than other local churches. The main church building was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott in an Early English style.

        In 1966, an agreement was drawn up between the Diocese of London with Saint Clement Anglican Church and the Greek Orthodox Church. The agreement stated that the Greek Orthodox Church of Saint John the Baptist would have unrestricted use of the main church building.The church hall, which was damaged in the Second World War and rebuilt in 1956, would remain with Saint Clement Anglican church. Consequently, part of the church hall was converted and used as an Anglican chapel.

        In 1973, Saint Clement's claimed to be the only Anglo-Catholic church in the area.

        In 1977 Saint Clement's Anglican Church united with Saint David, West Holloway to form the parish 'Saint David with Saint Clement'.
