The foundation stone was laid in 1861 by HRH the Prince Albert and the Chapel was built by 1863. The stained-glass windows commissioned in 1948 (following the devastation caused by a stray German bomb) provide a decorative record of the early history of Wellington.
The Chapel seats up to 600 adults and is a magnificent venue for any musical event.
