    The Bishop of Fulham opened the church on 24 March 1929 (Palm Sunday).
    All the interior cladding of the church comes from donations: the stained glass windows, the altar, the organ, the bells, the chairs, memorial plaques, the standards and flags... come from military units or private individuals. Field Marshal French, 1st Earl of Ypres, is separately honored with a memorial plaque on which his bust is placed. The Bible was donated by King George V. New donations continue to be received to this day.

    This Anglican church was built in 1928-29 according to the plans of the London architect Sir Reginald Blomfield.

    This 'Remembrance Church' houses many memories of the First World War. Everything, even the furniture, was donated by British associations, regiments or individuals.
