STOCKWELL ORPHANAGE: MEMORIAL HALL

STOCKWELL ORPHANAGE: MEMORIAL HALL

Memorial Hall taken in July 1929. The Memorial Hall celebrates the life of the founder, Charles Haddon Spurgeon, a Baptist preacher and the minister of the Metropolitan Tabernacle. The Memorial was aligned at right-angles to the original boys' dining hall which purpose it retained as well as providing an excellent assembly hall for worship and other communal activities. The Memorial Hall, built in 1894, houses a memorial to C. H. Spurgeon. Photograph courtesy of The Tella Co.Ltd, 1929.
