The Dissenters' Chapel of Bullhouse is one of the very oldest chapels in England. It was opened on 18th April 1692. It began as a Presbyterian meeting house after the Act of Toleration allowed non-conformist worship in 1689.For such a small chapel, it is interesting that its congregation in 1715 was 200 people.
