The foundation stone of West Dulwich Congregational Chapel in Rosendale Road was laid on October 7, 1851, by the Reverend J. Burnet. The building soon proved too small and a larger chapel was erected at the corner of Chancellor Grove and Park Hall Road, and opened in 1855. The foundation stone of the chapel in Rosendale Road was incorporated in the fabric of the new chapel. The chapel was destroyed by enemy action in the war of 1939-1945.
