History

The original Baptist Chapel was built in 1850, and is still to be found at the bottom end of London End. It was sold in 1993 and the congregation joined with the Methodist Chapel, which was built in 1864, located in Westbook End and now converted for residential use. When that building was declared in need of drastic repair as well, these premises too were sold. In about 1998 the congregation temporarily moved into St. Faith’s, sharing the building but maintaining our own services and identity, until the new premises were opened on 6th August 2006.
