Abstract:
A meeting house purpose-built on a new site in 1955 and slightly enlarged in 1968. The building is typical of the 1950s in style and is of medium heritage significance. Evidential value:The building itself is wholly of the 1950s and 1960s; no earlier fabric is contained in the building. The site and building are of little evidential value. Historical value: Quakers in Leicester have a history dating back to the 1680s, but the present site was only acquired by the Quakers in 1955 and the site and building have relatively little historical value. Aesthetic value: The building is typical of the 1950s and 1960s. It is not particularly distinctive in appearance, with the exception of the main meeting room with its exposed roof trusses; overall it is of medium aesthetic value Communal value:The meeting house is well-used by the local community and has high communal value.
