St Mary with St Alban is the Church of England parish church of Teddington in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It comprises the church of St Mary, Teddington's old parish church, and the former church of St Alban nearby.
The vicar is Rev. Joe Moffat.
The church is located on Ferry Road in Teddington, opposite the former St Alban's Church, which is now an arts centre. The oldest parts of the building date from the 16th century.[1] The building has been Grade II* listed with English Heritage since 1952.[2]
The church's most famous vicar was the Reverend Stephen Hales, a scientist whose legacy is the nearby National Physical Laboratory. He is buried directly under the church's tower.[3]
Also buried in the churchyard is the 18th-century actress Peg Woffington.[4]
