GB 0074 ACC/0516 1767-1856 Collection 0.08 linear metres Church of England: St Paul's Church, Mill Hill

Mill Hill did not always have an Anglican church. Until the 1820s parishioners had to go to St Mary's Hendon to worship, some miles away, but in the 1820s it was clear that the district would require a chapel of ease. Local resident William Wilberforce, the anti-slavery campaigner, became the central benefactor in 1827. Saint Paul's was completed in 1830, and consecrated in 1833. It became a parish church in 1926.

Fysh Coppinger was a London merchant who married into the de Burgh family of West Drayton and took the surname of Burgh.
