History
The Church was founded in 1643 by a dissenting group who refused to subscribe to unreasonable beliefs.
They were persecuted and some were imprisoned in Dover Castle. In the early 1800´s these ´General Baptists´
became Unitarian
( asserting the Oneness of God). They questioned belief in a Trinity and considered the religion of Jesus (Love God and your neighbour)
more important than a religion about Jesus. They rejected Original Sin, the Virgin Birth, and the condemnation of non-believers.
The first Sunday school in the town of Dover opened at this church in 1803. The present Chapel, built in 1820, is a grade II Listed building
and participates each year in Heritage Open Days.
