History of the Church Building
This church first opened its doors in 1914. A local architect named Albert Edward Lambert designed it. Building the church cost about £4,500 back then (which would be a lot more money today!). It was big enough for 450 people to sit and worship. There was also a schoolroom attached that could hold 300 children! Later, in the early 2000s, another church group called God's Vineyard Church started using the church hall.
The Church Organ
The church has a beautiful pipe organ. It was built by Charles Lloyd. In 1939, it was moved here from another place called Crocus Street Hall. A company named E. Wragg & Son helped with the move. You can find more details about this organ on the National Pipe Organ Register.
