St Mary's Church, Grade II listed church building in Islington, England.
The church structure features large windows that fill the worship space with natural light, complemented by a Portland stone portico at the west entrance.
Originally constructed in the 12th century, the church underwent reconstruction in 1754 under architect Lancelot Dowbiggin after falling into substantial disrepair.
The church established the first Asian Christian congregation in the United Kingdom, incorporating Urdu language services to serve the local community.
Regular worship services take place every Sunday at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM, with additional free lunchtime recitals scheduled throughout the month.
During the London Blitz of 1940, a bomb strike destroyed much of the building while leaving the tower and spire completely intact.
