Past Ministers

It was the Minister Samuel Angier who registered a new place of worship in the township of Liverpool in 1689. Samuel Angier was the Minister of Ancient Chapel of Toxteth. A new act was formed for the support of non-conformist religions. It was the beginning of religious diversity. There is no image of Castle Hey Chapel, only a plaque where is stood, on the corner of Castle Street and Harrington Street. The congregation at this point were Calvinists.

The congregation moved in 1727. The land was owned by James Benn, Mayor of Liverpool in 1697. It was the Rev. Henry Winder who inspired the congregation to revert to Unitarianism. Before they moved to Renshaw Street Chapel that were all converted.

Renshaw Street Unitarian Chapel was a Unitarian place of worship in Mount Pleasant, Liverpool, England. It operated from 1811 until the 1890s and was particularly well frequented by ship-owning and mercantile families, who formed a close network of familial and business alliances.

B.G.Orchard, a biographer, wrote of the Renshaw Street Congregation:

"…no group of men has so manifested fat-sighted appreciation of great questions affecting social wellbeing of the town or worked with more dogged ardour to promote national education,, public parks, free libraries and museums … At present Renshaw Street Chapel is probably the great political force in our midst"
