Site

Above the entrance at the left: "1883". above the two large windows: "Wesleyan Schools". Now, 2021, residential.

The plaques, which we have numbered left to right, run along the wall below all the windows. Cement has been liberally spread around and everything painted white so the plaques are of variable legibility. Our intuition has been called on to 'read' some of the names.

This building backs onto the Methodist Church in Stoke Newington High Street and old maps show that it has been here since at least 1895.

The Hackney Gazette gives the history of the church's four incarnations on the site: 1816, 1851 (HG has images, bombed in WW2), 1957 (image here), 2016. HG mentions that some new housing on the site funded the new church. Google Maps satellite view shows a heavily-developed site. The residential accommodation includes the conversion of the Sunday School and we'd guess that this all happened for the 2016 church.
