Title: Nearest parish church
Post by: KSD on Friday 29 October 10 19:04 BST (UK)

I am trying to find the nearest parish church for someone who lived at 10 St. James Place, Kensington in 1897.  Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Hmm......I think that is possibly too far to the east.   :-\       Posssibly St James, Norland Square?

Hi

These are the Anglican churches in Kensington in 1903

around 30

I think St James Place Kensington is now Penzance Street. Norland Square is relatively close by to that.
