Whitefield's Tabernacle, Moorfields, Methodist church building in Moorfields, England
The church building stands at the intersection of Tabernacle Street and Leonard Street, featuring Gothic architecture designed by C. G. Searle & Son in 1868.
The original wooden structure from 1741 was replaced by a brick building in 1753, serving as a central location for Methodist worship in London.
John Wesley delivered a memorial sermon at this location following the death of George Whitefield in 1770, marking a significant moment in Methodist history.
The congregation relocated to Alexandra Park in 1907, and the building was later incorporated into the Central Foundation Boys' Grammar School.
The foundation stone from the 1868 reconstruction contains inscriptions documenting the removal of the previous structure after 115 years of service.
