The area known as Angell Town was originally farmland, developed for housing in the 1850s. The site of the church of Saint John the Evangelist was donated by Benedict John Angell Angell in 1852, while the building costs were met by William Stone of Herne Hill. The church was constructed by 1853, designed by Benjamin Ferrey in a Gothic style. A parish was assigned in the same year. A vestry was added in 1882. The building was damaged by fire in 1947 but was subsequently restored.
