Located in Manstone Lane. The first Baptist church here was in 1932, when a Mission Hall was set up in a large disused cattle shed. By the mid 1960s, it had become apparent that the premises were too small, and the fabric of the building was getting beyond repair. A new building was opened in December 1968 on a site adjoining the older building. By the beginning of the 21st century, various problems led to the remodelling of the building. The completely renovated church seen here was dedicated in July 2006.
