Description: | This photo was taken in 1903. It was built, as a Reading Rooms and Lecture Hall, for the Wesleyan Methodists, when the previous Sunday School became too small. The foundation stone was laid on 10th August 1895 and the building was opened on 12th February 1896. In 1907, when the Swinburne Terrace church was closed, this building was adopted as the new church premises. In 1972, the congregations of Station Road Methodist Church and Wellfield Methodist Church combined to become Bill Quay Methodist Church. They were later joined by the congregation of Pelaw Methodist Church and the United Reformed Church. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Schools Churches and Chapels | Temporal: | name=Edwardian; start=1901; end=1910; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
