History
The church of Saint Mary the Virgin originated as a mission started by Marlborough College, Wiltshire, in 1881. The church was consecrated in 1887, largely paid for by the College. In 1888 a consoldiated chapelry, taken from the parishes of All Hallows, Holy Trinity, and Saint Paul, was created. The Bishop of London was patron. The church building was designed by J. E. K. Cutts in the Early English style. The church ran mission halls in Mitchley Road, Stoneleigh South, Kemble Road and Lansdowne Road.
