Biographical history
The Bishop of London is recorded as being the patron of the church at Ealing in 1127, and he held the position thereafter. The church served the whole parish until 1828 when part was assigned to Saint George's, Old Brentford, and 1852, when a new parish was served for Christ the Saviour.
The church of Saint Mary stands on St Mary's Road and is the second building to occupy this site. The original medieval church was so ruined by 1675 that services had to be held elsewhere, and the steeple fell on the church in 1729, destroying the building. A new church was completed by 1740, and was later remodelled and extended in 1865. Further restorations took place in the 1950s.
