Baptist chapel, now youth club. 1817-19 for the Revd Thomas Snow, with later alterations. Brick with roughcast front. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys, 5-window range. Central pedimented breakforward, and swept parapets above recessed wings. Central entrance has double part-glazed doors with overlight, between 2 recesses with casement windows. Band over, then continuous sill band. Windows: round-arched 8/8 sashes with Gothic glazing to heads. Continuous band above and 3 blind panels to centre. INTERIOR: noted as having segmental barrel-vault ceiling with shallow dome lantern. Cast-iron gallery to 3 sides. HISTORICAL NOTE: Built for Revd Snow after his removal from Portland Chapel, North Place (qv) and used for Strict Baptist Services until 1822 when Snow reverted to the Church of England and so handed it over to Anglican trustees. In 1827 it was sold to Congregationalists who re-opened it as 'Highbury Chapel'.
