DescriptionRecords relating to the church and parish of St Margaret of Scotland, St Margaret's on Thames.
Admin_HistoryIn 1930 the Diocese of Westminster bought the old house at 130 St Margaret's Road and Mass was said in the front room. Six years later the Parish of St Margaret of Scotland was formally created and in 1937 a prefabricated hut was erected in the front garden, in which Mass was said for the next 32 years.

After many years of fundraising and planning ahead for the construction of a new Church, the old house was demolished and architect Austin Winkley appointed to design the new building.

The new building including the church was completed in 1969 is called the Complex. Thirty years later, in recognition of its innovatory design and layout, English Heritage approved the Parish Complex as a Grade II listed building.
