Carmel Hall (2022 Streetview) on Bourne Street is dated 1938, and described in Pevsner as having been built as a church hall for the nearby St. Mary. Earlier O.S. maps show that it stands on the site of a Chapel - a map surveyed in 1869 labels it as Carmel Chapel (Baptist). TQ 2827 7855. Older O.S. maps show a Chapel on Halkin Street at TQ 2830 7959. The Caledonian Club now stands on the site, seen by Streetview in 2012. The About Us page of the club website says that the club was opened in 1946, the building itself dating from about 1910, on the site of an Episcopal Chapel. What appears to be a photo of the chapel can be seen further down the About Us page, with an imposing four column portico. Mosimann's (2025 Streetview) on West Halkin Street is a former Presbyterian Chapel, discussed here, where it says that there has been a chapel on the site since 1805.
