In working on St. Lawrence's archives I've found a throw-away paragraph in one of the books that refers to St Andrews (Langley Mill) origins.

Before the present church, and before it's predecessor the Iron mission church were built apparently the church was originally started as a Sunday school which rapidly grew and eventually became a church as well as Sunday school.

The reference says that Sunday school took place in a carpenter shop but had to purchase the Iron mission building as it grew quickly and the shop was not big enough (an amusing part of it refers to Claud Corfield having to stand on the ladder between two floors to try and teach the children who were on both floors).

Does anyone know where the shop was?

I'll try to get a photo on later but due to the way it was printed its a bit difficult to scan .
