Throughout its 200 year history, Hinde Street Church in London has been one of Britain's best-known Methodist churches, with a long tradition of great preaching and local community service. In the early years crowds flocked there to hear the foremost orators of the day. And thousands of children in the church's Sunday School were taught reading and writing skills before universal education was introduced.Hinde Street has always reflected its Marylebone locality: from the early days when poverty and disease were rife, to the turn of the twentieth century when shop-girls and young workers from the new West End stores were an important part of the local population.
