About this Event
Staple Hill Methodist Church
Heritage Open Day: Explore the history of our Church and area, as we celebrate 150 years in Staple Hill - our exhibition will take you on a journey from the mid 19th century to the present day. Refreshments will be served everyday. We invite you to share in our special anniversary this year, celebrating the present building opened in 1874, it is typical of a large Victorian nonconformist chapel, with large gallery, choir stalls, pews, fine pipe-organ and excellent acoustics. Certain recent modifications, including an enlarged vestibule and coffee bar do not detract from the beauty of the building which has been at the centre of the local community since it was built.
