History

In 1872, The Building News and Engineering Journal recorded that W. Allen Dixon was acting as architect for Colonel Alexander Croll in alterations to Granard Park (or Lodge), Putney Park Lane, Roehampton, and the construction of a new church in its grounds.[1] St Margaret's is the resulting church. It was originally a Baptist chapel but it later became the Anglican St Margaret's.[2]
