History
Saint Saviour's Chapel was built in 1695. The Rector of Saint George in the East (P93/GEO) leased the church in 1859 and used it as a mission chapel. A dispute developed between the Rector of Saint George's and the Minister of Saint Paul, Dock Street (P93/PAU2). When a district was assigned to Saint Paul's in 1864, Saint Saviour's Church lay within the new parish. Saint Paul's bought the church for use as a school and closed the mission.
