In 1801 the house of Daniel Gardner was registered as a meeting-place for Independents. (fn. 1) In 1829 they worshipped in an upper room in Watling Street and in 1834 they built and registered the building known as Edgware chapel, (fn. 2) which was set back from the Little Stanmore side of the street, south of the Mason's Arms. (fn. 3) In 1851, when a Sunday school was also held there, the chapel could seat 120 worshippers; on Sundays about 40 people attended service in the morning and about 60 in the evening. (fn. 4) The chapel, which was closed after 1881 but reopened in 1893, was replaced by a building in Grove Road, Edgware, in 1937. (fn. 5)
