Administrative/Biographical history:
From around 1880 mission services were held in Finsbury Park in a new public house, then in a temporary iron chapel. A parish was established in 1888, taken from Saint Anne's, Tollington Park. A permanent brick church was built in 1889, following the Early English style.
