Holy Trinity Church, Dalston

Holy Trinity Church stands on Beechwood Road with red brick walls and a central tower displaying Early English architectural features. The Grade II listed building contains a decorative screen relocated from St Philip church after its bombing in 1940.

The building was constructed between 1878 and 1879 under architect Ewan Christian, funded by the sale of St Martin Outwich in central London. This period marked the growth of church building in North East London.

The church serves the Dalston community as a place for regular religious services and parish activities. It functions within a united ministry that connects local people through shared worship and community gatherings.

The church is easily found on Beechwood Road in the Dalston area and is accessible from the street. Visitors should check ahead as the building remains an active place of worship with scheduled services and events.

The vestry houses the Clowns Gallery-Museum, an unexpected collection that surprises most visitors. An annual service celebrating clowns takes place here each February, continuing a quirky tradition few know about.
