It stands on the junction of Edgware Road and Harrow Road, overlooking Westway.[1] It is the third church on the site – once forming a centrepiece of the ancient Paddington and Lilestone villages. John Donne preached his first sermon in the original church, while William Hogarth was married in the second.[2] The current church is Georgian and was commissioned in 1788 and consecrated in 1791. Designed by John Plaw, and with a floorplan in the shape of a Greek Cross, it is built in yellow brick and dressed with white stone. It is Plaw's only confirmed surviving building in the UK, apart from Belle Isle on Windermere.[3] A further building in Romford, known as The Round House, has been attributed to him.[4] John Plaw later worked in Southampton before emigrating to Canada, where he designed several public and private buildings.[5] The church was substantially altered in the 19th century, but was restored by architect Raymond Erith in the early 1970s.[2] The church is notable for its fine monuments to local luminaries, including sculptor Joseph Nollekens and lexicographer Peter Mark Roget. St Mary’s ChurchyardAdjoining St Mary’s Churchyard was converted to a public park in the 1890s and is now known as St Mary’s Gardens. It consists of grassland with scattered trees. The grave of well-known 18th-century actress Sarah Siddons is located towards the northern end. Some other gravestones from the former graveyard are stacked against the west wall of the Gardens.[6] The southern part of the Churchyard was removed to make way for Marylebone Flyover in the 1960s, with exhumed bodies being re-interred in an area of Mill Hill cemetery and marked with a plaque.[6] Notable BurialsRemaining Churchyard
