Inscription

This site was first used for worship in 1573 by pioneer nonconformists - later by Huguenot refugees - In 1809 a Congregational church was formed which moved in 1860 to East Hill carrying on mission work here until the outbreak of war in 1939.

See the Wandsworth chapel for the truth of the 1573 claim.
