History
Saint Martin's Church was formed in 1899. It was built as a memorial church to Charles J. Vaughan (died 1897), headmaster of Harrow School and dean of Llandaff. The parish was formed from Saint Mary's, Saint John's, Kensal Green, Hammersmith, and Kensington in 1900. The church building was constructed in 1899, designed by J. E. K. and J. P. Cutts. The church organised a mission in Harrow Road between 1899 and 1908.
