St Peter’s is a Commisioners’ church that was built in the village of Hammersmith in 1829.

The architect was Edward Lapidge, who was the eldest son of Samuel, an assistant to Lancelot (Capability) Brown during his tenure as Master Gardener at Hampton Court Palace.



I was commissioned to carry out the paint analysis of the external face of a windows on the south side of the church.

A total of thirteen schemes of white and off-white paint were revealed however it is clear that the original paint had been stripped.
