History
Built in 1814, as a Chapel of Ease to the parish church of Saint Mary Islington. The parish of Saint Mary Magdalene was formed in 1894, the first wedding taking place in 1895. In the 1950's the neighbouring parish church of Saint James was rebuilt as a church hall. A part of the former Saint James parish was added and the name changed to Saint Mary Magdalene with Saint James.
