Cemeteries

We believe the Church did NOT have a graveyard.

Note: any church within an urban environment may have had its graveyard closed after the Burial Act of 1853. Any new church built after that is unlikely to have had a graveyard at all.

Church History

This Place of Worship was founded before 1885, but we understand it was closed after 1974.

Old Maps show that Christian Brethren were meeting at this location from 1882 to at least 1922. By 1974 the building is called a "Mission Room", so presumably still a place of worship. In more recent years it has transferred into private ownership, now called "The Old Mission Hall". It is an intriguing building, which at some point appears to have had a 'porch' over the door at the head of the steps; curiously, however it doesn't appear to have acquired Listed Building status.

Denomination

Now or formerly Christian Brethren.

If more than one congregation has worshipped here, or its congregation has united with others, in most cases this will record its original dedication.
