How to get here

The church car park entrance is on Hope Street. When the bookshop is open there will be someone there to unlock the gate. Be aware of the one-way system.

Our original chapel was built here in 1812. The present chapel was opened in 1977 and is a good example of 1970s Modernism, relatively unaltered since it was built. The church was built with a bookshop attached, which is still open regularly. Founded as an Independent church in 1810, the church is today still very much in the Congregational tradition.
