Lewes
- Providence Chapel, Lancaster Street now forms part of the Lewes Little Theatre building.
The board outside the chapel reads as follows: “The large “back addition” to the medieval Bull Inn was built in 1583 by Sir Henry Goring, who used the whole building as his town house. In 1700 the Elizabethan part was made into a meeting house for Dissenters who had left the church in 1662. First known as “Presbyterians” and later as “Unitarians” or “Free Christians”, they have continued to emphasise religious freedom and tolerance. Thomas Walker Horsfield historian of Sussex and champion of Catholic Emancipation ministered here from 1817-1827. In 1913 John H. Avery the Lewes ironfounder, had the meeting house divided into a chapel, hall and vestibule. Since 1987 the hall has housed the One World Centre – an embodiment of Westgate’s historic commitment to universal brotherhood."
