Chelsea Church. The church in this engraving shows Chelsea Church in 1865. It closely resembles Chelsea Old Church, destroyed in WWII, and later re-built. Can you confirm that they are one and the same. From Colin Waters' Collection. Link (Chelsea Old Church).
Moravian Church on Fetter Lane
(off the Kings Road).
To quote from Andrew - "Puzzled by this. This is marked as a
burial ground on the OS map and the site consists of a peaceful garden, just
off the King’s Road, with a set of buildings at the top – importantly, the
entrance has a ‘Moravian Church’ sign. None of the building resembled a ‘church’ in any way, shape or form, and oddly
enough no-one present, in the only building that was occupied, even realised
that a church was on site. Anyway, I finally found someone who
appeared to know a little bit about the church and he assured me that the
building in the photo’ is where they hold their services." Can you confirm that this is indeed a church?
