Geographical Note and Social context: By the mid-18th century, St Marylebone had developed into a small village surrounded by pastoral fields with the adjacent pleasure-ground of Marylebone Gardens laid to the southeast. The third church building was built directly on the ground of its predecessor and opened in April 1742.
However, these modest premises soon proved too small to adequately support and serve its rapidly developing parish, which had grown from 577 houses in 1739 to 6200 houses by 1795. Thus, a fourth parish church was planned and executed in the 19th century.
After the building and consecration of the fourth parish church, the third church continued to serve its parish as a small chapel-of-ease . ^[1]
At the start of the 18th century, the manor house was being used as a French school, serving the Huguenots . Marylebone boasted two inns – The Rose and The Kings Arms. The fields around contained clay pits and brick kilns, confirming the picture of Marylebone as an outskirt of London rather than a rural village.
In 1711, John Austen sold his estate . Within 10 years, plans had been drawn up for the development of the whole area, Most of the new streets took their names from the extended families of the estate’s owners – Cavendish, Bentinck, Harley, Portland. Marylebone became a fashionable place to live but also to visit. Before the redevelopment began, the bowling greens had been turned into pleasure gardens . They closed in the 1770s, by which time the gardens were hemmed in by other buildings. As well as the rich and fashionable, the Marylebone parish had its share of poverty, homelessness and associated problems. Following its demise, the Marylebone Gardens area degenerated into slums,
During the late-18th century, the main street became the Marylebone High Street . Tradesmen included an apothecary, baker, goldbeater, hairdresser, shoemaker and watchmaker. ^[2]
