The Fitzrovia Chapel is located at Pearson Square, London W1, standing in the centre of the Fitzroy Place development, bordered by Mortimer Street, Cleveland Street, Nassau Street and Riding House Street in Fitzrovia, Westminster.
Designed by John Loughborough Pearson RA, the chapel was built 1891–92 with its interior completed 32 years after his death in 1929, the works being overseen by his son Frank Loughborough Pearson (1864–1947).[1]
Built in the central courtyard of the former Middlesex Hospital, which was rebuilt in 1929–35 before being demolished in 2008–15, the hospital chapel was preserved as a Grade II*-listed building and renamed as the Fitzrovia Chapel.
The chapel is noted for its opulent Gothic Revival-style and mosaic interior.[2]
