The ' New Room ' was built in 1739 by John Wesley to serve as a meeting place for a religious society. It soon became the home of a growing congregation and the headquarters from which he and his associates went out on their preaching tours in the West of England. From the pulpit which John and Charles Wesley frequently occupied Dr. Frost speaks of the contribution that Aielhodism has made and is vigorously making today to the religious life of this country.
