More about this scene

Situated in Market Street and close to Apiary Gate, the church design echoes that of Non-conformist chapels up and down the country. It was designed in 1905 by Albert Edward Lambert in standard red brick Gothic style, as opposed to the Art Nouveau of his contemporary George Baines. A local architect, Lambert was quite versatile, designing the Albert Hall Methodist Mission in Nottingham (1909) in the form of a music hall, and Nottingham's Midland Station in a fashionable Edwardian manner.
