History
Kingsland Congregational Church had its origins in prayer meetings for brickmakers held in their foreman's house in 1789. In Summer meetings were held on Kingsland green. In 1792 a site for a permanent chapel was found in Robinson's Row, on the west side of Kingsland High Street. The Chapel was registered as Congregational (also known as Independent) in 1794. The Kingsland School (later institute) was opened in 1808 and came to be associated with the Congregational Church.
