St Mary's Greek Orthodox Church

St Mary's Greek Orthodox Church is a Greek Orthodox church in Trinity Road, Wood Green, London. It is also sometimes known as St Mary's Cathedral or The Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God.

History

The church was built as Trinity Methodist Church in 1871 to the design of the reverend R.N. Johnson and became Greek Orthodox Church in 1970.

It was greatly rebuilt after a fire in 1986 with the help of the Greek community and fundraising events notably a Dinner & Dance arranged by a pupil of the Greek school Nick Efthymiou.

In 2012, the church has hosted the Greek Secondary School of London.
