Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
Saint Peter's Church was consecrated in June 1867, having been privately built and endowed by C.J. Freake, a local developer, whose family thereafter held the patronage of the benefice. A parish was assigned to the church in July 1867 out of the parish of Saint Mary the Boltons, Kensington.
By an Order in Council of December 1972 Saint Peter's was declared redundant with the intention that the building be leased to the Armenian Orthodox Church. Anglican services ceased in January 1973. The parish was reabsorbed into Saint Mary the Boltons, which became known as Saint Mary with Saint Peter, Kensington.
