History

The first reported meeting of spiritualists in Gloucester was 1876. However, no official place of worship was founded until 1939, when the Gloucester Spiritualist Church met in Russell Street, as it was recorded in Kelly's directory. In April 1954, the church split and Gloucester National Spiritualist Church was formed. However, Gloucester Spiritualist Church still continued. In 1959, the church moved to its current site in Montpellier. In 1981, it became known as the Gloucester First Spiritualist Church.[2][3]

gollark: Why?
gollark: I'm giving people permission to try and gather data on me if they want, on the condition that they tell me while doing so, give me the results of this, and delete any copies they might retain of it without giving them to anyone else. Unfortunately this is pretty unenforceable. I can pay in melons, though.

gollark: I think I've been pretty clear that I'd prefer Nobody to not gather people's datas without asking them *beforehand*, but if he does do that anyway then he should notify people he's doing it.
gollark: If he *isn't* telling people about his data gathering escapades then he may not receive the appropriate complaint volume, so maybe I should just *assume* he's looking up someone's data at random times and complain?
