About the Chapel

John Wesley built this chapel when he started preaching outdoors to the poor of Bristol. It can be seen today just as it was in the 18th centuary.

The New Room is a historic building in Broadmead, Bristol, England. It was built in 1739 by John Wesley and is the oldest Methodist chapel in the world. Above the chapel are the rooms in which Wesley and other preachers stayed. Services are still held here every Friday at 1pm. 

A Garden in the heart of Broadmead

In 2008, the New Room trustees launched a funding appeal to help transform the Broadmead Courtyard of the New Room into a garden. It was hoped that this would not only enhance one of Bristol's premier heritage sites but also contribute towards the transformation of the retail city centre that has taken place over the past few years. The wall that dominates the garden section of the courtyard has been covered with climbing plants and espaliered fruit trees so as to help soften the outlook of the whole courtyard; this is also an echo of eighteenth century gardens and reflects Wesleyan principles on health and well-being. The steps that were around the statue and led into the chapel have been replaced with gentle inclines so as to improve accessibility

If anybody would like to expand  this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first at churchmicro@gmail.com so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
