CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
As a result of missionary activity from Woodford Congregational Church, Horn Lane, a chapel was erected in Globe Road, near Ray Lodge, in 1865. From 1886 onwards a resident minister was appointed. In 1900 a new, Gothic church, designed by F. Boreham, and costing £3,500, was built in Snakes Lane East, near the chapel, which remained in use as a mission-room until its purchase by the New Apostolic church. An institute was added in 1920. In 1930 Ray Lodge Congregational church became independent of the parent church at Woodford. It is now part of Ray Lodge United Reformed Church.
