In 1918, following World War I, St Budeaux and the other towns and villages in the treatment were amalgamated into the city of Plymouth.
Amid the heavy demolition and construction of this period, six more churches were built in the parish.
Much of this activity was initiated by the Plymouth Corporation, which made a habit of buying up the estates of principal landowners and destroying them in order to develop new amenities on the land.
The vicar of St Budeaux church at the time, the Reverend T. A. Hancock, was appalled by the Corporation's actions and protested in the 1930s, but to no avail.

Many homes in the region were bombed during World War II, and subsequent rebuilding resulted in a housing explosion.
