A short history of W9

The land belonged to the Church, held first through St Margaret's, Westminster and then by the Bishop of London after the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Sir John Frederick signed a development lease in 1742. Sir John Stuart became Count of Maida after the Battle of Maida in 1806; his likeness later hung outside The Hero of Maida pub on Edgware Road. An act of 1816 let the Bishop and Frederick's trustees begin building, which started along Edgware Road in the 1820s. Maps first showed the name Maida Vale in 1827 and by 1868 part of Edgware Road officially carried it. The area was a significant Sephardic Jewish district, called "New Jerusalem" in 1878. The Spanish & Portuguese Synagogue of 1896 on Lauderdale Road is Grade II listed. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners took the freehold in 1960. Of 244 listed buildings, four are Grade I: Catholic Apostolic Church and Church House; St Mary Magdalene; the Greek Cathedral of Aghia Sophia; St Augustine.
