This Unitarian chapel was founded in 1708 and is the oldest nonconformist place of worship still used in London. The banner on the right commemorates its most famous member, Mary Wollstonecraft, who, attracted by the dissenting community around the Green, came to live and briefly to run a school there, with her sisters and a friend, in the early 1780s.
