Memorial Community Church

History

It was founded in 1871 as the West Ham Central Mission and its present building opened in 1922.[1] Designed by William Hayne, its construction had taken 15 months, costing about £60,000. It was dedicated to men from the local community and the congregation who had died in World War One, with the names of 169 such men cast into the bells in the east tower in 1925.
