Abstract: |
The meeting house has high heritage value as a purpose-built nineteenth century building, designed by William Henry Thorp in an evangelical Gothic style, unlike the traditional simplicity of other meeting houses. The building was further extended in the twentieth century by the Quaker architect Michael Sykes. Internally, the building retains much of its plan form and historic fittings including a curved sounding board. The meeting house and burial ground make a positive contribution to the conservation area. |
