Biographical history

Saint Bartholomew's was built in 1811 by voluntary subscription raised by the congregation of William Huntingdon (1744-1813). At its opening the church was given to him as his personal property. The church was used by a number of preachers until in 1837 it came into the possession of a Mr. Davenport who gave it to the Reverend Thomas Mortimer of Saint Marks, Myddleton Square. However, a certificate of lunacy against Mr. Davenport was procured and his Trustees rented the church to Reverend Mortimer for £320 per annum. Mortimer retired in 1849 and Reverend E Garbutt became the new preacher. He managed to buy the chapel and enabled it to be consecrated as a district church by the Bishop of London on 13 Feburary 1860. In April 1959 the parish and benefice were united with the parish of Saint George the Martyr with Holy Trinity, Queen Square, Holborn (P82/GEO2).
