Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

The church of St Joseph, serving the West End area of Northolt, was one of three 'daughter' churches of the 15th century St Mary's in Northolt established in response to local population growth due to development during the 1930s, and extensive council housing building after 1945.

The church started in 1942 wtih mission services in temporary premises off Watery Road, demolished in 1944 to make way for housing. The congregation continued to meet in a variety of buildings, including Arundell School and the church house in Hawtrey Avenue. The first permanent church, a brick-built dual-purpose hall behind 'The White Hart' in Ruislip Road was dedicated in 1959. In 1963 land in Yeading Lane was purchased for the erection of a new church. The moden concrete structure with a separate bell tower was designed by Murray and Maguire architects and completed in 1969.
