CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Upper Street Presbyterian Church was situated at 107 Upper Street, Islington. It is possibly the same 'Scotch' congregation which worshipped at Myddelton Hall, Upper Street. Park Presbyterian Church, Grosvenor Road, Highbury was built after the Myddelton Hall congregation became too large. A note on the Upper Street Church registers states that the church moved to Dalston in 1853. It is possible this is the same Dalston Presbyterian Church which was built on Shrubland Road in 1858, and registered by the Presbyterian Church of England in 1863.
