Facts and practical information

Shrewsbury Unitarian Church is a Grade II listed building situated on the High Street in Shrewsbury, England. The meeting house was founded in its present site in 1662 by the Revd Francis Tallents and the Revd John Bryan, two dissenters ejected from St Mary's Church, Shrewsbury and St Chad's Church, Shrewsbury respectively. It was destroyed by a mob of Jacobite supporters in 1715 but rebuilt the same year. ()
