A relaxed accessible tour of our 200 year old building, a former Regency church which now houses a contemporary arts organisation. Find out more about the history of our building's architectural and social history in central Brighton. Explore the history of Holy Trinity Chapel with a 45 minute volunteer-led tour of the building.

Presented as part of Heritage Open Days: Routes – Networks – Connections



This year's tour will be connecting the dots of some of our building’s most significant changes in its history, exploring the physical transitions of the church due to a combination of social, cultural and philosophical changes over the years.


From the design influence of Thomas Kemp in the early 1800’s to Reverend Anderson’s ambitious developments, into the impact of famous and charismatic preacher Reverend Robertson and finally the current custodians of the building, Fabrica, who continue the story of this site with contemporary communities as well as planning for a more sustainable future for the building.



Developed as part of Past:Present:Future, a Heritage Lottery funded project in which we researched the history of our 200 year old building, and presented a series of events and materials as part of this learning. Our book will be available to buy on the day in our gift shop, and is also available online.
