ST. STEPHEN'S CHURCH, Mile End-road, is a neat structure, in the early English style, erected in 1846, at a cost of £2,500, raised by subscription, aided by government grant. It contains nave, aisles, chancel and neat tower and spire, and possesses 850 sittings, of which 500 are free and unappropriated. This church had also a district parish assigned to it at the same time as Holy Trinity Church, the population of which, in 1851, amounted to 6,287 souls. The living, worth £200 per annum, is in the patronage of the dean and chapter, and the incumbency of the Rev. Samuel B. Brasher, B.A., Rev. Samuel Stewart, B.A., curate.
