Hyson Green Methodist Free Church Nottingham

The foundation stones were laid on 21 October 1895, the congregation having outgrown its small chapel on Lindsay Street. The general contractor was John Lewin of Netherfield. The front is faced in Ruabon Terracotta, and Darley Dale stone dressing. It was later converted to Hyson Green Girls' Club, and is now Hyson Green Community Centre.
