On the South side of the present swimming pool. Opened Christmas Day 1810 as previous chapel found to be too small; at that time the largest chapel on the island with capacity for 450. This too became too small by 1840 and when the new chapel in Waterloo Road opened in 1845 continued in use as the Sunday School until 1888. When sold converted into an 'arcade' and demolished in the 1950's. |
