Buildings

Holland Road Baptist Church was built in the 1880s to seat around 700 people, with a stage at the front, baptism pool and central pulpit.

In 2000 the new church hall building was opened, with rooms designed for children's activities, and an excellent flexible space for meetings and meals. The hall can accommodate and feed 100 people, and the Ark and Attic above are wonderful spaces for children and teenagers. The hall and its kitchen are now in almost constant use by the church and groups from the local community.

In late 2010, 65 Holland Road, the old YWCA building next to the church hall, was completely refurbished. This was the culmination of many years planning, and was funded entirely by the church community without loans. It was designed to create new spaces for people to meet, to gather, to work and to serve our local community in different ways.

As well as all the church offices the building now includes 'the red room' (with projector and flexible meeting space for up to 40), a fairtrade cafe area and lounge/library on the ground floor, and a basement designed specifically for young people.
