Detail InformationEdit

Now a Methodist chapel, the original Trinity Independent (Congregational) Chapel was designed in 1840-41 by William Hosking FSA, at Poplar, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, and built by John Jay.With its large and elegant classical frontage in a combination of Grecian and Italian Renaissance styles, positioned to directly front onto the main East India Dock Road, this highly expensive chapel building came to dominate its East London streetscene at a time when chapel architecture in the East End elsewhere was generally low-key.
The bold design, was financed by the philanthropic shipyard owner George Green, a prominent local Congregationalist with non-denominational sympathies. Green was a contributor to many local causes in Poplar and Blackwall, wholly financing the former Sailor’s Home, later Board of Trade offices at 133 East India Dock Road. This building still stands today only a block away from Trinity Church, beyond the Wesleyan Methodist ‘Queen Victoria Seaman’s Rest’. He also endowed ‘George Green’s School’ (1828), which was rebuilt as the George Green Centre at Island Gardens, Tower Hamlets in 1974-8.
