Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Holy Trinity was constructed in 1855-1856 in order to serve a newly-completed housing estate in Tulse Hill. It was designed by T.D. Barry. A district was assigned in 1856.

Saint Matthias church was built in 1894, while a district chapelry was assigned in 1899. It replaced a temporary iron church.

The two parishes have now merged to form the parish of Holy Trinity and Saint Matthias, based at Holy Trinity.
