This is a building which is notorious of its musical use, amongst my local community & Thames Valley University in particular. It has 2 recording studios, a concert hall & a small office inside. Vestry Hall is located in South Ealing and has a relationship with Thames Valley University because of their constant use of the hall amongst their students and staff alike. As a child I attended the Thames Valley University otherwise known as the London College of Music for lessons every Saturday and had to perform concerts in the Vestry Hall on several occasions. The atmosphere of the Vestry Hall is warm & open to the nearby community in terms of being an audience to concerts & events.
In the early 19th century it was thinly attended, except on special occasions, and met at the Cross House, north of Ealing church, possibly the former church house. A new Cross House, often called simply the vestry room, was built in St. Mary's churchyard in 1840 and replaced in 1880 by the Vestry Hall in Ranelagh Road.
