CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Saint Paul's was built between 1847-1849 on ground given by the Marquess of Camden. The architects were F.W. Ordish and J. Johnson. It was a large-aisled church in stone with transepts and a tall western tower and spire, all in the decorated style. Owing to bomb damage sustained during the Second World War it was demolished in 1949, with the exception of the tower, spire and parish hall. A hall was built in the 1970s to act as both church and parish hall.
