St Mary’s Walthamstow reopened in December 2022 after a major restoration by Matthew Lloyd Architects. In addition to being a working church, our Grade II* building is now a beautiful heritage venue for concerts, retreats, meetings, children's parties on Sunday afternoons, filming, and school and community events.
We also have our church hall – the St Mary's Welcome Centre – as a second venue where you can hire a medium-sized room or larger hall.
Fully equipped for sound and lighting, the church’s main space is a special location for performances, while our church Play Area is perfect for Sunday afternoon children’s parties. Our smaller church vestry rooms are ideal for smaller meetings and away days. With views over our churchyards, the church offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from Walthamstow Central.
Additionally, just across the churchyard, is St Mary’s Welcome Centre which offers flexible spaces for hire, including a large hall that seats 100 and a lounge that seats 20+ adults, with a full-service kitchen as well as a private garden and patio space.
By choosing to hold your next event or meeting in one of our buildings, you not only help us to keep the history and heritage open and accessible for all, but you also support our vital community work.
