Description: The Chapel of Ease at Leytonstone in Essex (now the London Borough of Waltham Forest). Constructed in 1749 and rebuilt in 1819, to save Anglican parishioners the long walk to Leyton Parish Church. It could not be consecrated because it stood on leasehold land, which was opposite the present junction of Barclay Road with Leytonstone High Road. When St John's Church was built in 1833, the chapel was used as for the Leytonstone National School until 1876, was later known as the Assembly Rooms, and finally demolished in 1938.
