This former Congregational church was built in 1892 when the earlier premises became too small. This became the United Reformed Church and then, in combination with two other local chapels it became Trinity Church. Services were transferred to the Market Lavington Community Hall where they continue to be held and the church was sold and is now a private residence named Trinity House.
