It's a very nice church in a very nice situation - could almost be set
in rolling countryside rather than London W7, especially when viewed from the Wharncliffe Viaduct (which carries the railway over Brent River Park there, or the "Bunny Park" as it is known locally). They say that on her trips from London to Windsor, Queen Victoria used to request that the Royal Train stop on the viaduct to allow her to admire the view - although in her day, that view wouldn't have included the rather breeze-block-like Ealing Hospital which now dominates the picture from the south side of the viaduct. There's a very nice thatched cottage nearby on Church Road too that looks a little out of place somehow! The church itself nestles inside the park and there's an animal centre where you can go and see the animals too...we used to have to do cross-country all through the parkland when I was at school. It's a nice area. |
