History
The church of Saint Mary on Fore Street, Edmonton, was constructed in 1884. A parish had been assigned in 1883. The vicar of Edmonton, Robert S Gregory, gave £3,000 to the cost of construction. The church was demolished in 1957 and a small chapel opened in the vicarage. However, the vicarage was then demolished so a new building, Saint Mary's Church Centre, was constructed in 1970, containing a small church, meeting hall and accommodation for Sisters of the Community of St. Mary the Virgin.
