History

Foundation stone

The foundation stone for the chapel was laid on 13 July 1880. The architect was Charles Bell (1846–99), who specialised in designing Wesleyan Methodist chapels.^[1] It replaced the previous Methodist chapel on Holly Road becoming, at the time, the only non-Anglican place of worship in Twickenham^[2] and was constructed by the building firm T and W Hickinbotham.^[2]

The chapel became the hall and Sunday school when a new church, the Christ Church, was added in 1899.^[3] The Christ Church building was demolished in 1986.^[2]

The church closed in December 2016.^[4]
