St Matthias' Church, Canning Town

The modern building comprises a chapel, community rooms and a home for residents with disabilities.

It was named after St Matthias' Church in Torquay, which had assisted with funding the mission.

In 1961 parts of the parish of Holy Trinity and more from St Gabriel's were added.

[1] By 1989 the original church building was demolished and replaced in 1991 by an integrated chapel, community rooms and home for residents with disabilities.
