St Mary's Church, Northolt
St Mary's is the ancient parish church of Northolt, built c1300. Overlooking the site of a 15th-century manor house in Belvue Park, the church is a Grade 1 listed building, and was restored in 2008.
It is one of London's smallest churches, the nave measuring just 15 yards (14m) by 8 yards (7.3m).
St Mary's has been important ecclesiastically. From the 13th century to 1873 its rector was the Bishop of London, delegating local ministry to a vicar.
In the late 20th century it became the first Anglican parish to appoint a female rector, Rev. Pamela Walker.
