Sidwell Methodist church
The Methodists were praying here in Exeter from the 1830s, but it was not until the nineteenth century that the present church was built. A smaller hall and schoolroom were opened in 1896 but it was soon felt that they needed expanding. A tender was put out for such and was eventually awarded to a French engineer, Paul Cottancin, who had patented a system of reinforced brickwork and concrete. With a tempting fee of a mere £9,600 he went ahead to oversee the project.
However, he went bankrupt and was unable to finish the roof. The church was opened on May 3rd 1905, albeit with a temporary roof for a while.
