More Special Services & EventsNovember 2025 marked the 150th anniversary of the Church of England and Diocese of London’s plan for the new parish of The Holy Innocents, Hammersmith. The conveyance of land at Paddenswick Green by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners occurred then and by 1876 the Dalling Road Mission church (a temporary structure) was being built and an assistant curate had been appointed to plant and pastor a new community of faith. An early assistant curate and patron, the Revd M. J. Stone-Wigg, would go on to be the first Anglican bishop of Papua New Guinea!
Please take note of these dates in 2026 as we renew our current Mission and reflect on the many gifts and legacies of our fascinating heritage.
