Histórico
Northolt church formed part of the endowment of the priory of Walden in Essex founded by Geoffrey de Mandeville about 1140. Walden exercised its rights until some time between 1241 and 1251 when the prior's claims were disputed by the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's Cathedral. It was agreed that a vicarage should be instituted and patronage vested in the Bishop of London and his successors. In 1864 patronage was transferred to Brasenose College, Oxford, which still holds the advowson. The church of Saint Mary dates in part from the early 14th century with early-16th-century additions. A south vestry was added in 1945. Rapid increases in population during the 1930s and extensive council development after 1945 led to the formation of three daughter churches between 1940 and 1960: the churches of Saint Joseph, Saint Hugh and Saint Richard.
