Abstract: |
In May 2013 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, UCL) carried out a programme of historic building recording of a former Methodist Church fronting the northern side of Old Ford Road. The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, prior to the redevelopment of the building as residential units. The church is not depicted on the Ordnance Survey of 1881, but does appear on the 1895 map, and documentary sources indicate that building was complete by March 1881 when the first sermon is known to have been preached. Stylistically the building is a composite of various architectural traditions, resulting in an ornate principle façade. At the time of recording redevelopment of the building had already commenced: some demolition had taken place, internal walls constructed, and the entire building was encased in scaffolding. |
