In 1898, the Wesleyan Methodist Church set up the '20th Century Fund' with the aim of raising '1 million guineas from 1 million Methodists'.
A 50-volume 'Historic Roll' records all those who donated. £250,000 of the £1,075,727 raised was used to build this 'monumental memorial hall', which opened in 1912 and continues, as intended, to serve as a church and conference centre.
Designed by Edwin Rickards, the Great Hall seats 2,350 people and has a splendid, decorated ferroconcrete dome and 4,731 pipe organ. Meeting place of the inaugural General Assembly of the United Nations. Manning statue of John Wesley (marble, 19th century) on display.
