In 1802, the existing meeting house was demolished and a new building was erected, now referred to as the 'Unitarian Baptist' chapel. This building was opened by the Revs. Sampson Kingsford and William Vidler. The present building was constructed in 1889. The cost was met by two sisters as a tribute to their late parents, John and Selina Tribe. A memorial plate to the couple can be found inside the church hall.
