The Church of St Margaret of Scotland is a Roman Catholic church on St Margaret’s Road in St Margarets, Twickenham, in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It was designed by the architect Austin Winckley and opened in 1969. In 1999 it became a Grade II listed building.[1]

The church is named after the 11th-century English Saxon princess who became Queen of Scotland when she married Malcolm III[2] and who was canonised by Pope Innocent IV in 1250.[3]

Mass is held on Saturday and Sunday evenings and every morning except on Thursdays.[4]
