Notes about the Church |
Holy Trinity was built as a chapel for his own sect in 1817 by Thomas Read Kemp, planner of Kemp Town. The architect was A H Wilds (Colvin 4th ed p1120), who did much work for him. In 1828, after Kemp returned to the Established Church, it was sold and became a chapelry within the parish of St Nicholas, the parish church (Sawyer I p217). When Frederick Robinson, the great evangelical preacher, was minister from 1847 to 1853, the fame of the chapel rivalled any other in the town. |
