Biographical history

The first meeting to propose the foundation of Fulham Palace Road Congregational Church was held in Kensington in September 1902. Work began on the church hall on the corner of Harbord Street and Fulham Palace Road in 1904 and was completed the following year. Services were held there until the church itself was completed in 1908. The church became the Fulham Palace Road United Reformed Church in October 1972, and in January 1984 joined with the Wandsworth Bridge United Reformed Church to form the Fulham United Reformed Church. This used the existing church building on Fulham Palace Road until that was demolished in the summer of 1986 to make way for a new church building on the same site.
