Unitarian Meeting House, Ipswich, Religious meeting house in Ipswich, England.
The Unitarian Meeting House contains preserved wooden galleries, box pews, and a central pulpit within its Grade I listed structure in Friars Street.
Following the Act of Uniformity in 1662, Nonconformist groups gathered in rented spaces until construction of this meeting house began in 1699.
The interior arrangement reflects early practices where men occupied the ground floor while women sat in the upper gallery during religious services.
The building opens for Sunday services at 10:45, offering both in-person attendance and remote participation through video conferencing platforms.
A brass-plated spy hole installed in the door demonstrates the historical need for congregation members to monitor outside activities during periods of persecution.
