Grand Junction at St Mary Magdelene's is a uniquely ornate and architecturally significant Grade 1 listed Victorian church, located in the City of Westminster borough, in London Paddington.
The church was designed by G.E. Street, who designed the Royal Courts of Justice on the Strand, with the painted ceiling and stained glass by some of the finest craftsmen of the day, that was eye-catching enough to be featured in the 2012 film Les Miserables. An extension by award-winning architects Dow Jones, completed in 2019, brings modern facilities and positions this stunning historic building as a perfect venue for important and memorable celebrations.
A stone’s throw from Paddington Station, Warwick Avenue Station, Royal Oak Station, and a short journey from central London, our canal-side location is easy for your guests to reach.
