CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
The church of Saint Peter's was originally constructed between 1827 and 1829. The church was designed by architect Edward Lapidge as a Grecian Ionic structure of Suffolk brick finished with Bath stone. It was consecrated in 1829 by Charles Blomfield, Lord Bishop of London. Originally a part of Fulham parish, in 1834 Saint Peter's became part of Hammersmith parish and was used as a chapel of ease to Saint Paul's, the parish church. By 1836 the local population was large enough that the church was assigned an independent parish.
