In 1943 Dunstable Borough Council published ‘A Design for Dunstable’ detailing the layout of the Beecroft estate and within two years of the end of World War II the estate had been laid out and building began. A site for a church was included and it was agreed, after discussion between Dunstable Council and the Parish Church Council, that this site should be the corner of Westfield Road and Ashcroft. The site was bought by St Albans Diocese and was Hallowed in September 1967. The architect of the church was Mr Geoffrey Scoble and builders were Watson Ltd of West Street, Dunstable. On 11th May1968, the church was dedicated by the Bishop of St Albans. The original congregation was a group of people who had been holding Services in Beecroft School. Many had come from Christ Church in High Street North, Dunstable, which had been recently closed.
Since 1968 St Fremund’s has been extended three times to accommodate the increasing numbers of people attending the church. Originally there was a small bungalow attached to the church where the priest-in-charge lived. However, in 1986 this was rebuilt to give us a Church Hall.
