CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Saint Peter's was consecrated in August 1838. The building was designed by Edwin Blore. In 1951 the parish merged with Saint Benet, Mile End Road (P93/BEN) and Saint Peter's became the parish church of the united parish. However, it subsequently appears to have closed and the building converted to residential use.
