Holy Trinity, Medway Drive, Perivale

The building facing the road dates from 1936 and is by N.F. Cachemaile-Day, it was originally dedicated to St Edward the Confessor. In 1998 a new church shared with the United Reformed Church was constructed to the rear. A visit in October 2022 saw the old church in permanent use as a nursery and the new church seemingly only holding URC services.
