Kensington had its parish church, St. Mary Abbot’s, and a chapel in Addison Road. At the former was a man beloved by all who knew him, the Venerable Archdeacon Sinclair, a man whose memory will be still dear to some old inhabitants of Kensington. In Hornton Street, Kensington, was the chapel formerly under the pastorate of Dr. Vaughan, and here the Queen’s mother often listened to the Gospel. The Wesleyans had their chapel behind the High Street, and the Baptists in Silver Street Kensington Gravel Pits. This church now worships as Westbourne Grove Chapel. Old Silver Street chapel would hold about 200 people, it had one gallery in front of the pulpit, and behind the pulpit sliding doors opened on to the Sunday School Room. On great occasions the minister could have a congregation both in front and behind him. This however did not often happen. In 1844 the minister was Rev. F. Wills, and the Deacons Messrs. Saunders, Farmer, Worger and Wood. All these honoured brethren “have ceased from their labours.” Nonconformity was not allowed much room in Paddington, the land there mainly belonged to the Bishop and the friends of the Established church. The Baptists had a chapel in Praed Street, from which has sprung the Westbourne Park Chapel under the pastorate of Rev. J. Clifford. The Wesleyans had a chapel in Queen’s Road since rebuilt. In 1844 In 1882. Paddington had 2 churches 18. ,, ,, 2 Nonconformist Chapels 17. Kensington had 2 churches 23. ,, ,, 3 Nonconformist chapels 24. All honour to the men and women who have been instrumental not only in erecting buildings but in maintaining the great and important work connected with these places of worship. The churches and the country look to the young to follow in the steps of those who through good report and evil have worked on for the promotion of Christ’s kingdom and the welfare of their neighbours. The past generation have done much. Let every Christian see to it not only to hold the ground acquired, but to use all their influence to do even more than those who have gone before. I conclude with the desire that one more used to literary composition had written the facts. I hope all discrepancies will be overlooked and that it may not be uninteresting to read The Remembrances of AN OLD INHABITANT.
