Abstract: |
The meeting house has medium heritage significance as a modest mid-eighteenth-century brick-built barn, which was converted in the early 1990s to provide a first-floor meeting room, with a kitchen and other facilities on the ground floor. Evidential value: The building was originally intended for storage or a similar use and some features of the building (like the door openings) may be related to specific earlier uses. The building has medium evidential value. Historical value: The building was originally one of a row of modest outbuildings, presumably related to a principal building in Red Lion Street. For its surviving eighteenth century fabric it is of medium historical value. Aesthetic value: The building is part of an attractive group of modest brick structures and for that reason may be considered as being of medium aesthetic value. Communal value: The building has been used for worship and community purposes since 1994 and is of medium communal value. |
