Histórico
The district of Saint Stephen, Spitalfields, was formed in 1858, after a group of parishioners of Christ Church, Spitalfields (P93/CTC1), had campaigned for a new church to serve the growing population of the area. The district was formed from the north-west corner of the parish of Christ Church, and in 1860 a site on the east side of the new Commercial Street was conveyed to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. Saint Stephen's Church was designed by Ewan Christian, and consecrated in 1861. In 1863, portions of the parishes of Saint Leonard, Shoreditch (P93/LEN), and Saint Philip, Bethnal Green were added to Saint Stephen's. In 1930 the parish was reunited with Christ Church, Spitalfields, and the church of Saint Stephen was demolished.
