Biographical history
The church of Saint Ann's has its origins in Sunday afternoon services held at the Hermitage school on Hanger Lane (now St Ann's Road). In 1860 the church was founded near the school, and in 1861 it was assigned a parish largely taken from the parish of Holy Trinity church. The advowson of the church rested with a private benefactor, Fowler Newsam, who paid for the school and the church; although his daughter left the advowson to the chapter of Saint Paul's Cathedral. The building was large and richly decorated; attended mostly by businessmen and their families. The church opened several mission halls and a soup kitchen to assist the poor of Tottenham.
