History

Lenton Methodist Church was opened in 1914 and was designed by local architect Albert Edward Lambert.[1] The cost of construction was £4,500 (equivalent to £389,472 in 2015)[2] and it had seating for 450 worshippers, and 300 children in the attached schoolroom.

In the early 21st century, the church hall was adapted for use by God's Vineyard Church.

Organ

The pipe organ by Charles Lloyd was transferred here in 1939 by E. Wragg & Son from Crocus Street Hall. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[3]
