John Keble Church

John Keble Church features modernist architecture designed by D. F. Martin-Smith, completed in 1936 with clean lines, functional form, a spacious nave, distinct tower, and interior elements suited for Anglican worship practices.

The church was constructed and consecrated in 1936 to serve the Mill Hill community, receiving Grade II listed building status on 18 May 1989 in recognition of its architectural integrity and historical significance.

This church stands as the only ecclesiastical structure specifically named after John Keble, a prominent leader of the Oxford Movement who influenced Anglo-Catholic liturgical practices and Anglican theological revival during the 19th century.

The church hosts regular Anglican worship services, baptisms, and community events, accessible via public transportation in the London Borough of Barnet with active links to local community support and parish resources.

Many clergy who served at John Keble Church advanced to distinguished positions including bishops and deans, with first vicar Oswin Gibbs-Smith becoming Dean of Winchester and subsequent vicars achieving episcopal offices.
