Title: Help please-looking for a picture
Post by: leah on Tuesday 31 October 06 08:09 GMT (UK)
I'm looking for a picture of Pentonville Chapel in the Parish of St James, Clerkenwell. I know it existed in 1859 but I think it was demolished in mid 1900's. I've "googled" to no avail
Can anyone help please? ???
Thankyou

Hi Jane
Thank you for that website link- I didn't know that one. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong but I can't find what I need

Hi Jane and Sandie
Thank you both for your suggestions. Very interesting websites
I have finally found a picture at collage.cityoflondon.gov.uk which has an awful lot of information and a "shopping basket" as well!
Cheers!

Thanks for that website. There is a tiny picture there of Pentonville Chapel on the bottom left which is the same as the one I have just purchased!
Thanks,
Leah
