Building From 1852

Oddfellows Hall Clapham

Categories: Religion

Originally opened by the Baptists as the Ebenezer Chapel, with the adjoining building, (the manse), known as the Ebenezer Cottage. Within a few years the Baptists moved elsewhere, and the chapel was taken over by the Wesleyan Bible Christians.

In 1908 it was purchased by the Trustees of the Pride of Clapham Lodge of the South London District of the Independent Order of Oddfellows. The society still owns the building and holds regular meetings there.
