Saint Saviour's church and vicarage was built and founded by Francis Peek (1836-1899) in memory of his parents William and Mary Peek. Building work on the church began in 1880 and the church was consecrated on February 22nd, 1881. The parish was extended in 1931 to include Dog Kennel Hill and part of Campion Hill. The original vicarage was badly damaged during the Second World War and later sold, with a house on Oglander street being purchased instead.

The original trustees of the church were members of the Peek family, later the trustees were the Southwark and Rochester Diocesan Trust. In 1959, at the suggestion of the remaining patrons (Rev Canon Roxby and Mr Daukes) the partonage was invested in the Southwark Diocesan Board of Patronage.

In 1978-1879 the building was extensively remodelled and converted into a community centre with a central worship area shared by the Anglicans and the Hanover United Reformed Church, which joined together in 1981 to create the Copleston Centre Church, a local ecumenical partnership. Plans for the re-modelling where designed by the architects Weekes and Hughes, with the re-modelling being done by Thomas Ford and Partners.
