Detail InformationEdit
St George the Martyr Holborn is an Anglican church located at the south end of Queen Square, Holborn, in the London Borough of Camden. It is dedicated to Saint George, and is so-called to distinguish it from the later nearby church of St. George’s Bloomsbury, with which it shared a burial ground (now St George’s Gardens).
The church was built in 1703–6 by Arthur Tooley, as a chapel of ease to St Andrew, Holborn. Tooley was paid £3,500 to build the chapel and two houses by a group of fifteen trustees including Sir Streynsham Master. It was later bought by the Commission for Building Fifty New Churches and became a parish church in 1723, receiving the dedication to St George, in honour of Streynsham Master’s governorship of Fort St George in India. The antiquary William Stukeley was the rector there.
The church was remodelled in the early nineteenth century by J.B. Papworth, who added a bell-tower and two frontages to what had previously been a plain brick building. And once again in 1867-9 by S. S.Teulon who almost entirely changed the exterior, removed the galleries and added the present columns and roof.
